Beginning today, scores of
would-be callers in Northeastern
and Central Pennsylvania will hear
a computerized message on their
phones instructing them to hang up
and dial local numbers again using
both the area code and number.
It’s a day Bob Rossi has seen
coming for years.
The Hazleton sign maker, who
owns Rossi’s Graphics, said he’s
been adding the “570” area code
to the majority of clients’ signs,
marketing items and other things
that display the companies’ phone
numbers for years. Those custom-
ers are appreciative now that the
state’s mandated 10-digit dialing
for the entire 570 area code region
has gone into effect.
“I knew they were going to
eventually do it,” Rossi said of the
10-digit dialing, so he took it upon
himself to either add the area code
to products he prints or to encour-
age others to make sure they did so.
While things have been quiet for
him, he expects to begin receiving
calls soon from business owners
seeking new signs and banners.
“People usually wait until the last
minute,” Rossi said.
Debbie Dourant, owner of
Fieseler Signs in Pittston, said she
thought she would see a spike in
calls from business owners look-
ing for new signs and banners. She
was disappointed. “I really didn’t,”
she said, theorizing that business-
es either don’t have the money to
spend on sign changes or they’re
hoping customers will just get in
the habit soon enough of dialing
the area code with all local calls.
Michelle Levine, owner of Fast
Signs in Wilkes-Barre, said she
thinks once people start to realize
the change is in effect, she’ll begin
to get calls from businesses seeking
a “570” addition.

Area priest accused of having sexwith boy
SCRANTON — A priest who
has served at more than a dozen
Northeastern Pennsylvania parish-
es — including several in Luzerne
County — has been suspended from
his post in Old Forge after he alleg-
edly was caught in a car on a college
campus having sex with a boy.
Security officers at Penn State
Worthington Scranton say they dis-
covered the Rev. William Jeffery
Paulish, 56, parked in a red Toyota
Thursday night with a 15-year-old
boy who wasn’t wearing any pants,
according to an affidavit.
The priest told investigators he
arraigned the liaison via postings on
the website Craigslist, Lackawanna
County Deputy District Attorney
Jennifer McCambridge said Friday
night.
Paulish initially told police he was
walking around campus working on
his homily, according
to the affidavit. He
said he encountered
the boy by chance,
learned that the teen
was in emotional dis-
tress and was coun-
seling the youth,
police said.
Under questioning at the Dunmore
police station, Paulish allegedly
admitted having placed an ad in
the “casual encounters” section of
Craigslist in search of companion-
ship. He said he received an email
from an unknown male and agreed
to meet at the college, according to
police.
“Paulish stated he asked the male
approximately three times if he was
18 years old,” police wrote. The affi-
davit does not indicate whether or

Pizza Fellas on South Main Street, Wilkes-
Barre, does not include the area code on
its outdoor sign. Starting today, anyone
dialing a phone number within the 570 area
code must dial the area code and seven-
digit phone number in order for the call to
be placed.
WHO IS IMPACTED?
the change to 10-digit dialing within
the 570area code impacts those
people in all or parts of 29 counties
stretching fromthe Harrisburg area
in the south to the Poconos in the
east, the Newyork state line in the
north and Clinton County in the
west. Lackawanna, Luzerne and
Wyoming counties are among them.

PLAINS TWP. — Flood
victim James Herron Jr.
said Friday he needs a lit-
tle more time to find a per-
manent residence. Federal
authorities believe he has
exhausted all his resourc-
es including his stay in
a Federal Emergency
Management Agency-
supplied trailer at the East
Mountain Ridge Mobile
Home Park.
Federal prosecutors filed
a civil complaint against
Herron seeking to repos-
sess the trailer at Lot 446,
the only FEMA trailer left
in the park.
“It’s only me and my two
boys,” Herron said, noting
his sons are 13 and 15. “I’m
trying to do my best; I’m
working on making pay-
ments on a trailer, but it’s
hard when you only make
$400 in welfare and I’m
fighting disability after I
got hit by a backhoe.”
Herron was living in
Exeter Township along
state Route 92 in a beau-
tiful house, he said, when
the Susquehanna River
flooded in September
2011. The river reached a
record crest of 42.66 feet
that destroyed his home
and possessions, he said.
Herron and his sons
in November 2011 were
provided a temporary
housing unit, a trailer, in
East Mountain Ridge. By
accepting the FEMA trail-
er, Herron had “a duty to
obtain and occupy alter-
nate housing at the earliest

Prosecutors allege James
Herron Jr. has not done
enough to fnd a new,
permanent place to live

James Herron Jr. was told he had 15 days to vacate this trailer on
Sept. 7, 2012.

WASHINGTON —
Charting a collision course
with the White House,
the Republican-controlled
House approved legisla-
tion Friday to wipe out
the three-year-old health
care law that President
Barack Obama has vowed
to preserve — and simul-
taneously prevent a par-
tial government shut-
down that neither party
claims to want.
“The American people
don’t want the govern-
ment shut down, and they
don’t want ‘Obamacare,’”
Speaker John Boehner
said as members of his
rank and file cheered at
a celebratory rally in the
Capitol moments after the
230-189 vote. He stood at
a lectern bearing a slogan
that read, “#Senate must
act.”
Senate Majority Leader
Harry Reid said it will —
but not the way Boehner
and his Republican con-
tingent want. Assured
of enough Senate votes
to keep the government
open and the health care
law in existence, the
Nevada Democrat accused
Republicans of attempt-
ing “to take an entire law
hostage simply to appease
the tea party anarchists.”
Behind the rhetoric lay
the likelihood of anoth-
er in a series of com-
plex, inside-the-Beltway
brinkmanship episodes
as conservative House
Republicans and Obama
struggle to imprint wide-
ly differing views on the
U.S. government.
In addition to the threat
of a partial shutdown
a week from Monday,
administration officials
say that without passage
of legislation to allow
more federal borrowing,
the nation faces the risk
of a first-ever default
sometime in the second
half of next month.
House Republicans
intend to vote to raise the
nation’s debt limit next
week to prevent that from
happening. But they have

SCRANTON — A former
fast-food restaurant worker
has sued the owners of the
Shavertown McDonald’s
where he worked, claiming he
could not access his payroll
debit card to collect his wages
after he was fired last year.
Michael Rogers, 24, of
Bennett Street, Luzerne,
is owed between $190 and
$240, said attorney Michael
Cefalo, who represents him
in the lawsuit filed Friday in
Lackawanna County Court.
The filing named Albert and
Carol Mueller, owners of the
McDonald’s on state Route
309 in the Back Mountain,
as defendants. They also
are defendants in a class-
action suit filed by Cefalo &
Associates of West Pittston
regarding the use of debit
card with fees to pay workers.
Rogers’ suit deals with
alleged violations of the state
Wage Payment and Collection
Act and is separate from
the class-action suit, Cefalo
said.
The complaint was filed in
Lackawanna County because
the Muellers’ business, Albert
and Carol Mueller LTD
Partnerships, is located in
Clarks Summit, Cefalo said.
According to the complaint,
Rogers was hired to work at
the McDonald’s restaurant on
April 12, 2012, at an hourly
rate of $8.25 until he was ter-
minated on June 30, 2012.
He was not paid for his
last pay period from June 17
to June 23, the suit states.
On July 14, 2012, he tried to
access the JP Morgan Chase
Payroll Debit Card issued
by McDonald’s only to be
informed that the card was
in “unauthorized use” status,
the suit states.
More than a year later
Cefalo contacted the law
firm of Littler Mendelson
of Philadelphia, which rep-
resents McDonald’s, and
demanded payment for
Rogers. But attorney Matthew
Hank of the law firm replied
in a July 24 letter, “Our
client has reviewed its
records and confirmed that
Mr. Rogers has been paid all
of his wages.”
Rogers is seeking payment
of his remaining wages, attor-
ney’s fees, interest, costs and
damages.
Ex-McDonald’s worker alleges he is owed wages
Michael Rogers, 24, of
Luzerne, claims restaurant
failed to pay him between
$190 and $240
WILKES-BARRE — A
Pittsburgh man has filed a law-
suit against the Mohegan Sun at
Pocono Downs casino, alleging
he was visibly intoxicated and
workers continued to serve him
beverages, leading to alcohol poi-
soning.
Nicholas Mullins filed the
suit this week through his
attorney, Stewart Niemtzow, of
Havertown, requesting $50,000
in monetary damage.
Mullins says in the suit he
was at the casino in November
2011 playing poker with $4,000
in gambling chips over a several-
hour period. During that span,
Mullins alleges he was served
between 10 and 15 alcoholic
drinks, was visibly intoxicated
and was asked by workers to
leave.
Workers learned Mullins was
a military veteran and called
the Veterans Administration
Hospital for assistance.
Mullins had to stay at the hos-
pital for a number of days because
he had suffered from alcohol poi-
soning, the lawsuit states.
WILKES-BARRE — A
Shavertown couple has filed a
lawsuit against a beauty salon
after their daughter allegedly
was bitten by the salon owner’s
dog.
Gary and Christine Vincelli
refiled the suit this week
through their attorney, Michael
Lombardo, III, against Theresa
Perry, of Dallas.
According to the suit,
Christine Vincelli was with her
young daughter at Perry’s salon
in February 2012 for about two
hours. When the Vincelli’s were
leaving, the girl went to pet
Perry’s Jack Russell Terrier, Jack.
The dog, which previously had
injured two other patrons, bit the
girl’s cheek and lip, the lawsuit
states.
The suit alleges carelessness,
negligence and recklessness in
that Perry allowed her dog to
remain at the salon despite the
previous incidents and that Perry
allowed the dog to roam free and
didn’t restrain it.
The suit requests monetary
damages for past and future sur-
geries the girl needs for perma-
nent scarring as well as pain and
suffering.
WILKES-BARRE — The
trial of five men charged with
causing a riot at an area state
prison has been rescheduled to
begin in December.
The five men were sched-
uled to be tried on charges they
caused a riot in 2010 at the
State Correctional Institution at
Dallas, but they appeared before
Luzerne County Judge Lesa Gelb
on Thursday where a continu-
ance of their Sept. 30 trial was
requested.
Derrick Stanley, 43, Anthony
Locke, 34, Andre Jacobs, 31,
Carrington Keys, 32, and Duane
Peters, 41, claim they were
being retaliated against after
civil complaints and complaints
with several other agencies were
filed against several corrections
officers. The men covered and
tied their cell doors and had to
be removed from their cells in
the prison’s restrictive housing
unit, police said. The inmates
said they attempted to get the
attention of prison guards to talk
about the injustices they were
receiving.
Stanley, Locke, Jacobs and
Keys represent themselves in the
case with the assistance of stand-
by counsel.
Gelb said a pretrial hearing
will be held on Oct. 11 and that a
trial will begin with jury selection
on Dec. 9.

Writ issuedtoseize former judge’s unclaimedproperty
Government pursues utility refunds of
less than $20 owed to a Mark Ciavarella
JERRY LYNOTT
[email protected]
SCRANTON — The pace of pay-
ing off the $1.1 million restitution by
former Luzerne County Judge Mark
Ciavarella has been slow, and it’ s likely
to stay that way with the federal gov-
ernment’s latest effort to seize property
supposedly belonging to him.
The clerk’s office in the U.S. Middle
District Court of Pennsylvania issued a
writ of execution Friday, ordering the
U.S. Marshals Service to go after two
accounts held by the state Treasury
Department as unclaimed property.
The department said there are two
utility company refunds totalling
$19.55 to a Mark Ciavarella, but it
could not verify that it was the former
judge.
Ciavarella, 63, began serving a
28-year sentence in federal prison in
2011 following his conviction earlier
that year on corruption-related charg-
es in the “Kids for Cash” juvenile jus-
tice scandal. He is held at the Federal
Correctional Institution in Pekin, Ill.
and has a release date of Dec. 30,2035.
He and former county Judge Michael
Conahan were indicted in 2009 on
charges they participated in a $2.8 mil-
lion kickback scheme related to the con-
struction of the PA Child Care facility
in Pittston Township and the Western
PA Child Care Center in Butler County
and the placement of youths in the
facilities.
Conahan, 61, pleaded guilty to rack-
eteering conspiracy and was sentenced
to 17 1/2 years in prison. He is held
at Coleman Low Federal Correctional
Institution in Florida with a release
date of Dec. 18, 2026.
Last May a three-member panel of
the 3rd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals
vacated one of the 12 guilty counts
from Ciavarella’s February 2011 trial
and ordered his $1,200 fine reduced by
$100. But the panel let stand his con-
viction.
At the time of Ciavarella’s sentenc-
ing in August 2011, he was ordered to
pay $1,174,991 in restitution. He has
a balance of $1,127,191, according to
the writ.

Ferretti
Ferretti, 56, has more than
20 years of experience work-
ing to protect the state’s
natural resources, having
served as the Pennsylvania
Environmental Council’s direc-
tor of its northeast regional
office, where she worked
closely with DCNR and its
partners on landscape conser-
vation.
“I’m honored, and that’s put-
ting it lightly,” Ferretti said.
“And I am extremely grateful
to the governor for this oppor-
tunity.”
Ferretti said she has no
“grand sweeping initiative in
mind,” and she cited DCNR’s
“extraordinary” work. “I have
nothing new in the works for
the near future, other than to
protect our parks and forests
and to assure our staff has
what it needs to do their jobs.”
Ferretti grew up near the
scarred landscape of strip min-
ing and learned to appreciate
nature by traveling to state
parks, she said.
“As I travel around the state,
I find so many people who
share my love for our parks,”
she said. “We have so many,
especially in Northeastern
Pennsylvania, that are often
taken for granted.
“Maybe we don’t have a lot of
natural beauty in our neighbor-
hoods, but our region certainly
does.”
In addition, Ferretti
has served as: director of
Environmental Resources at
Borton-Lawson Engineering,
as a land protection specialist
for The Nature Conservancy
and as a project manager at
Westinghouse Environmental
and Geo-technical Services
Inc.
A graduate of Wilkes College
with a degree in environmental
science and biology, Ferretti
has completed many continu-
ing education courses on
conservation, environmental
assessments, redevelopment,
forest stewardship, trail, park
and recreational planning.
Corbett also nominated E.
Christopher Abruzzo as sec-
retary of the Department of
Environmental Protection.
Abruzzo, of Hershey, was serv-
ing as Corbett’s deputy chief
of staff until he was appointed
acting secretary of the DEP in
April.
Corbett said Ferretti has
devoted much of her career
toward the development, pro-
motion and protection of state
parks and forest lands.
“That experience and insight
will make her an excellent
secretary,’’ Corbett said. “She
understands the unique quali-
ties of our state park and forest
systems. I am confident the cit-
izens of Pennsylvania will ben-
efit from her continued stew-
ardship of our public lands.’’
Pennsylvania Growing
Greener Coalition Executive
Director Andrew Heath
endorsed the governor’s nomi-
nation of Ferretti. “Her lead-
ership and expertise, coupled
with her commitment to
Pennsylvania’s natural resourc-
es, make her a strong choice to
head DCNR,” Heath said. “She
has a proven record in caring
for the commonwealth’s rich
natural resources.”
Paul King, president of the
Pennsylvania Environmental
Council, issued the follow-
ing statement supporting
both nominees: “The PEC has
worked well with both indi-
viduals and has found them
committed to the missions
of the agencies. We appreci-
ate Governor Corbett naming
two thoughtful stewards of the
environment and we look for-

KINGSTON — Police
and agents with the Luzerne
County Drug Task Force
arrested two people Friday
when they allegedly attempted
to flee a Market Street resi-
dence with a large amount of
heroin and crack cocaine.
Authorities knocked on the
door at 476 Market St. just
before noon as Kevin A. Klass,
25, and Shannon Morton, 35,
attempted to escape out the
front door. Klass and Morton
were stopped on the front
porch, where they encoun-
tered a police sergeant and a
canine, police said.
Klass allegedly had 171
heroin packets stamped
“Superman,” eight bags of
crack cocaine
and $750
cash. Morton
allegedly had
a heroin pack-
et hidden in
her mouth,
police said.
Police said
they found
a loaded
.45 caliber
handgun and
a 12-gauge
s h o t g u n
inside the
residence.
Klass and
Morton were arraigned by
District Judge Paul Roberts
in Kingston on four counts
of possession with intent to
deliver a controlled substance,
three counts each each of pos-
session of a controlled sub-
stance and criminal conspir-
acy, two counts of possession
of drug paraphernalia and one
count of criminal use of com-
munication facility. Each was
jailed at the Luzerne County
Correctional Facility for lack
of $150,000 bail each.
Klass and Morton said dur-
ing their separate arraign-
ments that they are heroin
users and unemployed. Klass
said he previously was arrest-
ed in New York City on drug-
related offenses.
Authorities searched
the house after Klass and
Morton allegedly sold heroin
in Edwardsville on Sept. 18.
They told Roberts that they
had been living at the Market
Street residence since April.
Authorities condemned the
residence as a “drug house.”
A baby carriage and an empty
beer box were on the front
porch of the residence.
Preliminary hearings are
scheduled on Oct. 2.
HARRISBURG
Tigue appointed
to judicial board
Gov. Tom Corbett has appointed
Thomas M. Tigue to the Judicial
Conduct Board. Tigue will serve as a
non-lawyer, lay member of the 12-mem-
ber board.
Tigue, of Hughestown, is a for-
mer member of the state House of
Representatives. The Democrat rep-
resented the 118
th
district from 1981
until his retirement
in 2006 and served as
Democratic chair of
the House Veterans
Affairs and Emergency
Preparedness
Committee.
He is a 1964 gradu-
ate of St. John’s High School, earned
a degree in government from King’s
College in Wilkes-Barre in 1968, and has
pursued graduate studies at Marywood
University. Tigue retired from the U.S.

The Judicial Conduct Board is a con-
stitutionally created independent board
charged with the responsibility of inves-

to prove the charges against the judge by
clear and convincing evidence.

Steroid
dealer
to plead
again
EDWARD LEWIS
[email protected]
SCRANTON — A Nanticoke
man who served two years in fed-
eral prison for operating a drug
ring that distributed steroids
and Ecstasy in 2007 has agreed
to plead guilty a second time to
trafficking steroids from overseas,
according to federal court docu-
ments.
Peter Sepling, 43, submitted
a statement saying he plans to
plead guilty to importing gamma
butyrolactone from China in April
2011.
Sepling and John Nikoloff,
of West Fourth Street, West
Wyoming, were indicted by a
federal grand jury in June 2011.
Nikoloff, age unknown, pleaded
guilty on Feb. 23, 2012, to con-
spiring to distribute the perfor-
mance-enhancement drug. His
sentencing hearing has been con-
tinued several times as Sepling’s
case remained open.
Sepling was scheduled for trial
in federal court in October.
U.S. District Court Judge A.
Richard Caputo must accept
Sepling’s guilty plea before it
becomes official.
Sepling could face up to 20
years in prison and a $1 million
fine, court records state.
According to court records:
Customs officers working at a
DHL Courier facility in Kentucky
targeted a parcel from China to
Nikoloff in April 2011. The par-
cel contained 1.1 kilograms of
Gamma Butyrolactone. The par-
cel was delivered to Nikoloff’s
address on April 26, 2011.
Authorities served a search
warrant the same day, finding
the empty parcel box behind a
garage on the property, and ste-
roids, pills, syringes and packag-
ing from previous deliveries in
Nikoloff’s apartment above the
garage, court records state.
Nikoloff told authorities he
accepted the parcel at his resi-
dence on behalf of Sepling. He
delivered the parcel to Sepling
when they met later on April 26,
2011, along Wyoming Avenue in
Kingston.
A search of Sepling’s residence
uncovered 111 bottles of anabolic
steroids and numerous bottles of
pills and liquids, court records
state.
In 2007, Sepling pleaded guilty
to conspiring to distribute ket-
amine, a tranquilizer that is a pop-
ular “club drug.” Authorities said
Sepling obtained large quantities
of the drug from a source in India.

TRUCKSVILLE — Fred Searles
shipped off to Korea six decades ago
knowing the risks all too well.
He counted among his ancestors
a settler killed in the 1778 Battle of
Wyoming. His own grandfather had
been killed in action in World War I,
he said.
Searles didn’t suffer the fate of his
forefathers.
Instead, as Searles told people at a
sunset gathering Friday outside The
Rock Recreation Center and Back
Mountain Harvest Assembly, he spent
33 harrowing months as a prisoner
of war, enduring cold, hunger, thirst
and vermin while watching colleagues
die around him in the mud huts that
became their prison.
“Most of us were 18, 19 years old.
But that is who you get to fight a war,
because at that age, you think you are
invincible,” the Kingston man recalled
Friday night during a ceremony hon-
oring American POWs and military
personnel who remain missing in
action.
“You’re scared, sure, but you don’t
think anything is going to happen to
you,” added Searles, who served in
the U..S. Army from 1950 to 1953.
The ceremony was held in honor of
National POW/MIA Recognition Day,
but also to raise awareness of plans
to erect a POW/MIA memorial at the
Carverton Road site.
Several dozen people gathered in
the flickering light of a blaze known
as a “watch fire,” a military tradition
used across the centuries to call scat-
tered soldiers home at the end of bat-
tle, organizers said.
It was held in conjunction with
another fundraiser, in which orga-
nizers at The Rock also plan to cre-
ate an artificial turf outdoor sports
playing field in the name of Matthew
Benjamin Rondina, a Kingston
Township Raiders youth football play-
er who died from brain cancer at age
13 in 1998.
Elijah Miller, development director
at Rock Recreation, was attempting
to run 54 miles on Friday — recalling
Rondina’s number — as well as doing
540 pull-ups to help raise funds for
both projects.
He was busy running as the ceremo-
ny got underway.
Friday’s ceremony was part of a full
weekend of activities, including a 5K
trail run today, 3 on 3 basketball at the
Rock Center and an 11 a.m. memorial
service on Sunday at Back Mountain
Harvest Assembly.
There were other speakers Friday,
including New York resident Debra
Kay Anderson, who told the audi-
ence about her father’s death as an
Air Force pilot in Vietnam, and how
it took a quarter century to find his
remains.
Searles, meanwhile, choked back
tears as he recalled his ordeal in
Korea, and those people who did not
make it home with him.
There were times when the prison-
ers only had a thimble full of stale rice
to eat, he said, and drank runoff water
from rice fields that had been fertil-
ized with human feces.
If a prisoner died overnight, survi-
vors often didn’t tell the Korean cap-
tors until after rations had been hand-
ed out, so the living might share the
tiny bit of extra food reserved for their
lost compatriots, Searles explained.
“The American people are hungry if
they go 20 minutes past a meal time,”
Searles said, adding that he didn’t
mean to insult his audience but that
few people in this country can under-
stand the level of starvation POWs
endured, or that many North Korean
people might still be forced to endure.

His trial is scheduled to

Barnes’ attorneys, John

thrown out, includ-
ing statements
Barnes made to
police while at
a hospital being
treated for the
gunshot wounds.
Barnes agreed to
several search warrants
and detailed the events
that led to the shooting.
Barnes told police he
went to visit a friend at the
apartment complex, but
his friend was not home
so he was in the process of
leaving when a Hispanic
male pointed a gun at his
head. Barnes said there
was a struggle and the
gun went off a number of
times, so he fled.
While running, Barnes
said, he became short of
breath and real-
ized he had been
shot. He went to
his nearby home
and his girlfriend
called 911.
Barnes said the
man with whom
he struggled was
someone famil-
iar, but that he could not
remember the man’s name,
according to testimony.
Barnes said he could iden-
tify the man’s clothing and
some tattoos, and recog-
nized him to be in the

WILKES-BARRE —
Luzerne County Judge
Michael Vough ruled on
Friday that statements a
homicide suspect made
to police will be permitted
at his trial next week, but
prosecutors cannot mention
any prior criminal activity.
Vough made the rul-

attorneys and prosecu-
tors in the case of George
Lee Barnes, 23, who is
charged with killing Daron
Rhashan Trollinger, 26,

WILKES-BARRE —
He’s known as “Bone
Daddy” and “Lucifer,”
and he was wanted on an
alleged probation viola-
tion by the Pennsylvania
Department of Probation
and Parole until
Thursday when
city police say
they found him
hiding inside
a North Fulton
Street house.
Jesse Geasey,
33, attempted
to hide behind
a bed in a second-floor
bedroom in an attempt
to evade capture, police
said. He was taken into
custody and turned over
to state parole officers,
police said.
Geasey was released
from state prison in June
after serving 14 months
of a two-year, four
months to five-year state
prison sentence out of
Luzerne County.
According to court
records: Geasey was
charged by city police
for slashing several
people with a box cutter
during a melee on Coal
Street on May 6, 2011.
City police also
charged Geasey with
cutting a lock at a mau-
soleum in Hollenback
Cemetery and smashing
a marble faceplate to a
crypt. He forced open
a rusty coffin and stole
the skull of Louise Bana
Kidder on July 16, 2010.
Kidder was one of
six people entombed
in the mausoleum.
She had died Dec. 31,
1926, according to the
smashed faceplate.
Geasey carried the
skull in a backpack for
several days, police said
in the criminal
complaint. While
he was fishing
with another per-
son, he tossed
the skull into
the Susquehanna
River.
It wasn’t the
first time Geasey
had stolen bones from
Hollenback Cemetery.
Police accused him in
May 1998, when he was
18 years old, of forcing
open a mausoleum door
and stealing bones from
several caskets. He was
sentenced to probation
in 1999, according to
court records.
Geasey pleaded guilty
to aggravated assault for
the Coal Street slashing
and criminal trespass
and abuse of a corpse
on April 17, 2012.

Epitome Lee Kammerer Brace “EPI”
6/26/99-9/2/13
With the gentle assistance of her mom and dad, Epi crossed over
the “Rainbow Bridge” on Monday, September 2, 2013. Finally a
“whole” once more, she was able to walk to meet her patiently
waiting mate, Te Duke or Earl.
Epi was a Llewellyn English Setter and an accomplished bird
hunter who, with no professional training, successfully pointed
and retrieved 8 out of 10 pheasant and chukhar partridge at the
age of 8 months. She continued to hunt for 8 years before retiring
to the back yard, where she would point robins and mourning
doves. Before her illness, she loved to lounge on the patio with the
family and watch for and chase the feral cats that would come
through the yard on occasion. She will be sorely missed y all who
knew and loved her.
Preceding her in the walk over the bridge was her signifcant other and best friend, Te Duke of Earl on 12/26/06 and her porcine sister
Althea Maria on 11/2/09
She leaves behind her parents Lois and David Brace, porcine sister Bristol Ann, feline sister Elizabeth of Hanover Twp. and Luzerne,
and brother, Baxter (Bubby) Kern of Trucksville.
Lois and Dave would like to thank the staf at Back Mountain Veterinary Hospital in Dallas especially Dr. Brock Phillips and Gina
Masters for the expert and compassionate care she received for the past 2 years since her decline in health. She defed all odds!!
I love you, with all my heart “Always & Forever”.

Life’s too shot to be alone
Judge to W. Wyoming hauler: Clean up property or face jail
SHEENA DELAZIO
[email protected]
WILKES-BARRE—Acounty
judge said Friday that the owner
of Russell’s Hauling in West
Wyoming has 10 days to clean
up the property or he could face
additional fines or even jail time.
At a hearing Friday the bor-
ough requested Joseph Russell
be held in contempt for violating
Luzerne County Judge Michael
Vough’s cease-and-desist order
of his hauling company in early
August. Russell was found not to
have proper zoning or licensing
to operate the business.
The borough said in court
papers this month that despite
Vough’s order, Russell continued
to operate his business.
A hearing Friday began with
testimony froma West Wyoming
police officer, but then was put
on hold while attorneys dis-
cussed issues.
About an hour and a half later,
Vough emerged from his cham-
bers and said the borough and
Russell’s attorney, Erik Dingle,
came to an agreement.
“You agree you did violate …
the order?” Vough asked Russell.
“Yes, sir,” Russell replied.
Russell has 10 days to clean up
the business at 12 Apollo Drive,
Vough said.
If Russell does not clean and
clear his property at the end of
10 days, he’ll have to pay $1,300
to the borough and a $200 fine
for every day thereafter that he
is still on the property, the judge
said.
“The next step is prison,”
Vough told Russell. “Do you
understand that?”
“Yes, sir,” Russell said.
The borough, through its
solicitor Linell Lukesh, alleged
Russell continued to operate
his business at a neighboring
auto dealer to the Apollo Drive
business, and that the borough
continues to receive complaints
from neighbors regarding noise.
Russell told The Times Leader
last week that he has not been
operating his business and had
been asked by the owner of VP
Auto Parts, located next door,
to operate and manage a salvage
yard there.
Russell also said his hauling
business is in the process of
opening an office in the borough
of Wyoming. “I have to work and
support my family,” Russell told
the newspaper. “Working for
(VP Auto Parts) allows me to do
that. I’mjust trying to make a liv-
ing. Am I not allowed to work at
any other business?”
Between April 2012 and the
present, the borough originally
argued, nearby property owners
have experienced “detrimental
living conditions” due to noise,
smells, smoke and other viola-
tions coming from Russell’s
Hauling Co.
Russell testified previously
he had not received violations
from the state Department of
Environmental Protection or
any similar agency.
Russell’s Hauling opened in
February 2012 and sought zon-
ing for a special exception to
operate a multi-use recycling and
junkyard at the 12 Apollo Drive
business. That re-quest was later
denied, and Russell appealed
that decision, but no followup
hearing was ever scheduled.

“This was in the fort at
Forty Fort. Nathan Denison
used it to sign the articles of
capitulation,” Bachman said
of the British victory. “That
was on the Fourth of July
1778, two years to the day
after we had declared our
independence,” he added.
Happier times
The home also harbors
memories of happier days,
as guests will learn.
It was enlarged many
times over the years, and
pictures show numer-
ous additions, including a
Victorian-era porch, that
were stripped away when
the home was restored for
preservation in the 1970s.
Bachman can remember
visiting as a young man
more than 50 years ago,
before the house became a
museum.
“It looked like a typi-
cal 1950’s house inside,”
Bachman said as he stood
in the north room, which
was used as a family room,
and explained how the
Denison family would have
dined at a large table, pulled
close to the fire during bit-
ter Pennsylvania winters.
The roomalso is believed to
be the only one in the house
with original flooring.
“The whole thing is kind
of a time machine experi-
ence for people, and a very
pleasant way to spend a
Sunday,” Bachman said.
“I think everyone who vis-
its will come away having
learned something about
what life was like in the
Wyoming Valley in the
1790s.”

Denison House event to ofer glimpse at 18th century life
ROGER DUPUIS
[email protected]
Festival on Sept. 29 at Forty Fort site will feature Colonial-type crafs, activities and foods
FORTY FORT —
Expect hearty traditional
soups to be on the menu at
the Nathan Denison House
Harvest Festival next
weekend, but no hot dogs.
The popular sausages,
beloved by generations of
Americans since the late
1800s, would have been
unknown to Col. Nathan
Denison and his family
when they built a home-
stead on the western bank
of Abrahams Creek in the
late 1700s.
“Cookies and cider
will be served,” said Bill
Bachman, a member of
the volunteer Denison
Advocates, who are orga-
nizing the event to benefit
the historic property and
its educational programs.
“But no chocolate chips,”
Bachman quickly added, as
the morsels didn’t appear
until the 20th century.
Such attention to period
detail won’t be limited to
food, as Bachman and the
Advocates assemble a col-
lection of artisans whose
work is intended to edu-
cate visitors about early
American life even as it
helps raise money.
Guests will be treated
to exhibitions of 18th cen-
tury crafts ranging from
chair caning, wheat weav-
ing and clothes making to

Wealthy family
While most activities
will be arranged around
the home’s neatly trimmed
lawns, visitors also will be
able to tour the ground
floor of the two-and-a-half
story, wood-frame dwell-
ing, which was built about
1790. It originally was
home to Denison, his wife
Elizabeth, seven children,
an elderly member of the
family and one servant,
Bachman said.
“It’s not a large house
by our standards, but in
the 18th century, this was
a castle,” Bachman said,
adding that most Wyoming
Valley settlers of the period
would be lucky to have a
log home, as many still
lived in houses cobbled
together from mud and
what little lumber they
could get their hands on.

Bill Bachman, a Denison Advocate, talks about period furnishings inside the Nathan Denison House
as the Denison Advocates get ready to host the Colonial Harvest Festival on Sept. 29 at the historic
property in Forty Fort.
But Denison and his
family weren’t most set-
tlers. He was the scion
of a New England family
who headed west prior to
the Revolutionary War,
when the Wyoming Valley
was still contested terri-
tory between Denison’s
native Connecticut and
Pennsylvania.
A justice of the peace,
Denison served as a militia
colonel during the revolu-
tion. One piece of furniture
in Denison’s restored home
plays mute testimony to his
role as second in command
during the bloody Battle of
Wyoming, fought nearby on
July 3, 1778.
Bachman somberly laid a
hand on the dark wood of a
small table inthe southroom
of the home, which served
as Denison’s office and a
receiving area for guests.

Associated Press
WASHINGTON —
President Barack Obama and
Iran’s new president might
meet briefly next week for the
first time, marking a symbolic
but significant step toward
easing their countries’ tense
relationship. An exchange of
letters between the leaders
already has raised expectations
for a revival of stalled nuclear
talks, though Iran is still likely
to seek an easing of interna-
tional sanctions in exchange
for significant progress.
In small steps and encour-
aging statements, Iran’s lead-
ers appear to be opening a
door more widely to detente
in their nuclear dispute with
the U.S. Cautiously optimistic
yet still skeptical, Washington
is weighing whether Iranian
President Hasan Rouhani’s
recent overtures actually rep-
resent new policies or just new
packaging.
“Negotiations with the
Iranians is always difficult,”
President Barack Obama said
in a recent interviewwith ABC
News. “I think this new presi-
dent is not going to suddenly
make it easy. But, you know,
my view is that if you have
both a credible threat of force,
combined with a rigorous dip-
lomatic effort, that, in fact, you
can strike a deal.”
Both Obama and Rouhani
will be in New York next week
for the annual meeting of the
U.N. General Assembly. The
White House hasn’t ruled
out the possibility of a direct
exchange, though spokesman
Jay Carney said no meeting is
scheduled.
Obama has long said he
would be open to discussions
with his Iranian counterparts
if Tehran shows it is serious
about curbing its nuclear pro-
gram.
“There have been a lot of
interesting things said out of
Tehran and the new govern-
ment — and encouraging
things,” Carney said Thursday.
“But actions speak louder than
words.”
Iran has repeatedly said it
wants sanctions eased as a first
step to make any significant
progress in nuclear negotia-
tions. Sanctions levied by the
U.S. and Europe have contrib-
uted to a rapid rise in inflation
and unemployment in Iran.
Tehran insists its nuclear
program is peaceful and that it
is enriching uranium to levels
needed for medical isotopes
and reactor fuel. But Western
powers, including the U.S.,
fear Iran is trying to build a
nuclear bomb.
Whether any headway is
made on the nuclear issue
could hinge on how the U.S.
and Iran handle negotiations
to dismantle Syria’s vast chem-
ical weapons stockpile. Iran is
the chief benefactor to Syria,
where an Aug. 21 chemical
weapons attack on Damascus
suburbs killed as many as
1,400 people, according to
U.S. and Western intelligence
agencies, who blame the gov-
ernment of Syrian President
Bashar Assad.
Yet Iran has been vocifer-
ous in its condemnation of
chemical weapons attacks in
Syria. In an op-ed published
in Thursday’s Washington
Post, Rouhani said Syria
“has become the scene of
heartbreaking violence” and
pledged to help facilitate dia-
logue between Assad’s regime
and the rebel opposition.
THE HAGUE, NETHErlANds
Syria outlines
weapons cache
Syria has sent the Organization for
the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons
an “initial declaration” outlining its
weapons program, the organization said
Friday.
Spokesman Michael Luhan told The
Associated Press the declaration is
“being reviewed by our verification divi-
sion.” The organization will not release
details of what is in the declaration.
U.S. State Department spokeswoman
Marie Harf said the United States
and other nations that have joined the
chemical weapons organization “will be
making a careful and thorough review of
the initial document.”

Pope denounces
abortion culture
Pope Francis offered an olive branch
of sorts to the doctrine-minded, conser-
vative wing of the Catholic Church on
Friday as he denounced abortions as a
symptom of today’s “throw-away cul-
ture” and encouraged Catholic doctors
to refuse to perform
them.
Francis issued a
strong anti-abortion
message and cited
Vatican teaching on
the need to defend
the unborn during an
audience with Catholic
gynecologists.
It came a day after he was quoted as
blasting the church’s obsession with
“small-minded rules” that are driving the
faithful away. In an interview that has
sent shockwaves through the church,
Francis urged its pastors to focus on
being merciful and welcoming rather
than insisting only on such divisive, hot-
button issues as abortion, gay marriage
and contraception.

Obamas to attend
Navy Yard memorial
President Barack Obama and first

The memorial is scheduled for
Sunday at the historic barracks, not far
from the Navy Yard where 12 people
were fatally shot by 34-year-old Aaron
Alexis, who was killed by law enforce-
ment Monday.

PSU approves
borrowing $750M
A relatively low-key meeting of Penn
State trustees has concluded with
approval of a $750 million borrowing
plan to help finance capital improve-
ments over the next five years.
The trustees also voted Friday to
seek $300 million in state aid for the
2014-15 budget year, an increase of
about 5 percent.
Outside, about 200 protesters chant-
ed and demanded the trustees’ resig-
nations because of their handling of
the Jerry Sandusky child sexual abuse
scandal. The protesters, who included
former Pittsburgh Steeler Franco
Harris, are angry over allegations in a
university-commissioned report that
the late Penn State football coach Joe
Paterno helped cover up Sandusky’s
crimes.
The borrowing package includes $30
million to help the athletic department
cover the costs of NCAA sanctions
imposed because of the Sandusky
scandal.

Obama
moves to
limit carbon
pollution
DINA CAPPIELLO
Associated Press
WASHINGTON — Linking
global warming to public health,
disease and extreme weather, the
Obama administration pressed
ahead Friday with tough require-
ments to limit carbon pollution
from new power plants, despite
protests from industry and
Republicans that it would dim
coal’s future.
The proposal, which would set
the first national limits on heat-
trapping pollution from future
power plants, is intended to help
reshape where Americans get
electricity, moving from a coal-
dependent past into a future fired
by cleaner sources of energy. It’s
also a key step in President Barack
Obama’s global warming plans,
because it would put in motion
plans to end what he called “the
limitless dumping of carbon pollu-
tion” from all power plants.
Under the law, once the
Environmental Protection Agency
controls carbon at new plants, it
will also control carbon at existing
plants — a regulation the agency
said Friday it would start work on
immediately to meet a June 2014
deadline.
Yet the federal government’s own
analysis of the newpower plant pro-
posal concludes that it would have
a “negligible” impact on carbon
dioxide emissions, pose little to no
costs for the industry and provide
no additional benefits to the public
by 2022. That’s because it essen-
tially locks in what was widely
expected to happen anyway. Even
without new federal regulations,
the agency concluded that no new
coal plants would have been built.
Instead, the bulk of new power in
this country would be supplied by
natural gas, which already meets
the standard announced Friday.
“The EPA … does not anticipate
this rule will have any impacts on
the price of electricity, employ-
ment or labor markets or the U.S.
economy,” the EPA wrote in its
analysis.
The industry, and its allies in
Congress, quickly dismissed that
conclusion.
Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., said
the agency was holding the coal
industry to “impossible standards.”
EPA administrator Gina
McCarthy said in a speech Friday
that rather than damage an indus-
try, the proposed regulations
would help the industry to adapt,
by encouraging energy companies
to develop ways to reduce carbon
dioxide, the chief greenhouse gas,
from burning coal.
Despite some tweaks, the
rule packs the same punch as
one announced last year, which
received more than 2.5 million
comments and was legally vulner-
able because it required coal and
natural gas to meet the same limit.
Critics of proposed regulations
say they would be death knell
for future coal-powered plants
rescuers say 68 people reported missing in village of la Pintada
MICHAEL WEISSENSTEIN
Associated Press
ACAPULCO, Mexico — Mexican
soldiers dug through tons of mud and
dirt Friday in their continuing search
for landslide victims, as authorities
looked for a federal police helicopter
that went missing while carrying out
relief operations on the flood-stricken
Pacific coast.
The helicopter with three crew
members on board was returning from
the remote mountain village of La
Pintada, where the mudslide occurred,
when it went missing Thursday, said
federal security spokesman Eduardo
Sanchez.
“We still don’t know anything,”
Sanchez said. “(The helicopter) was
in La Pintada … and then we didn’t
hear anything more from it.”
Search efforts continued in the
town north of Acapulco, where 68
people were reported missing follow-
ing Monday’s slide. Two bodies have
been recovered, but it was unclear if
they were among those on the list of
missing.
Federal police have been helping
move emergency supplies and aid vic-
tims of massive flooding caused by
Tropical Storm Manuel, which washed
out bridges and collapsed highways
throughout the area, cutting Acapulco
off by land and stranding thousands of
tourists.
Survivors of the La Pintada land-
slide staying at a shelter in Acapulco
recounted how a tidal wave of dirt,
rocks and trees exploded off the hill,
sweeping through the center of town,
burying families in their homes and
sweeping wooden houses into the bed
of the swollen river that winds past
the village on its way to the Pacific.
“Everyone who could ran into the
coffee fields. It smothered the homes
and sent them into the river. Half the
homes in town were smothered and
buried,” said Marta Alvarez, a 22-year-
old homemaker who was cooking with
her 2-year-old son, two brothers and
parents when the landslide erupted.
La Pintada was the scene of the sin-
gle greatest tragedy in the twin paths
of destruction wreaked by Manuel
and Hurricane Ingrid, which simul-
taneously pounded both of Mexico’s
coasts over the weekend, spawning
huge floods and landslides across hun-
dreds of miles of coastal and inland
areas.
Manuel later gained hurricane force
and rolled into the northern state of
Sinaloa on Thursday morning before
weakening over land. By Thursday
night it had degenerated into an area
of low pressure over the western
Sierra Madre mountains, the U.S.
National Hurricane Center said.
Three people were reported dead
in Sinaloa: a fisherman swept from
his boat, a small boy who fell into a
ditch and a young man whose vehicle
was swept away by flood waters that
reached waist-deep in some places in
Culiacan, the Sinaloa state capital.
The death toll from the weekend
storms, not including the dead in
Sinaloa, stood at 97. But it was certain
to rise because the figure also doesn’t
include the missing in La Pintada.

Search efforts continued Friday near the village of La Pintada, Mexico, north of Acapulco, where 68 people were reported missing following
Monday’s landslide.
Mexico digs for landslide victims
13 wounded in shooting at Chicago park
The Associated Press
CHICAGO — Those
behind a late-night attack at
a southwest Chicago park
in which 13 people were
wounded, including a 3-year-
old, used an assault-style
weapon to spray the crowd
with bullets, making it “a
miracle” no one was killed,
the city’s police superinten-
dent said Friday.
Ballistics evidence shows
that those behind Thursday
night’s attack used a 7.62
mm rifle fed by a high-
capacity magazine, police
Superintendent Garry
McCarthy told reporters.
That type of weapon, he said,
belongs on a “battlefield, not
on the street or a corner or
a park in the Back of the
Yards,” the neighborhood
where the shooting took
place.
“It’s a miracle in this
instance that there have been
no fatalities based upon the
lethality of the weapon used
at the scene,” McCarthy
said, calling on lawmakers
to restrict the sale of such
weapons and choke off the
flow of illegal guns into the
city.
The attack happened
shortly after 10 p.m. while
the Cornell Square Park was
still crowded with people
watching a basketball game
and enjoying a warm late
summer night.
Investigators believe sev-
eral people took part in
the attack but weren’t sure
yet how many fired shots.
McCarthy said that based
on witness interviews, it
appears the attack was gang-
related and that several vic-
tims are gang members.

Editor’s note: This is
one in an occasional
series by The Associated
Press about the impact
of the Afordable
Care Act’s health
insurance exchanges.
Open enrollment for
these exchanges, or
marketplaces, begins
Oct. 1.
As many as nine in 10
Texans buying health insur-
ance on the new feder-
ally run exchange will get a
break on costs, according to
federal health officials. Steve
and Maegan Wolf won’t be
among them.
The Wolfs, who live in an
upscale area outside Austin,
make too much money to
qualify for tax credits that
will help other people afford
coverage. That leaves them
wondering howmuch they’ll
wind up paying.
Steve Wolf, 50, coordi-
nates stunts and special
effects for feature films
and TV shows. Last year,
he helped the Discovery
Channel blow up scale rep-
licas of the Hindenburg. He
owns Stunt Ranch, where
schoolchildren come to
learn about the science and
math of movie stunts.
His wife, 34, is a full-time
mom who spends many
hours each week getting
their three boys, 16-year-old
Clayton, 12-year-old Paxton
and 8-year-old Dashton, to
school, swim lessons, speech
therapy and math tutoring
appointments.
Like many who run family
businesses, the Wolfs’ annual
income varies, but it’s typi-
cally $115,000 to $140,000.
That means they make too
much to be eligible for the
tax credits that will help
some Americans pay for
health insurance under the
Affordable Care Act. They
also worry that changes in
coverage required by the
law will mean their pre-
miums will increase. That
includes setting minimum
coverage requirements for
insurance companies that go
well beyond what many offer
nowand prohibiting insurers
frombanning those with pre-

existing medical conditions.
The Wolfs have pur-
chased their family’s health
insurance on the individual
market for about 12 years,
during which time their pre-
miums have risen steadily.
They now pay about
$650 a month for insurance.
While their general health is
excellent, each of them has
had their share of medical
expenses. Their policy has
a $5,000 annual deductible
for each adult, meaning the
Wolfs in many years have
had to pay $10,000 out of
pocket toward medical bills
on top of the $25 copays for
doctor visits and $20 copays
for covered generic medi-
cine.
Next to their mortgage
($2,300 a month with prop-
erty taxes), their health
insurance is one of their
biggest expenses. Private
school for two of the three
boys adds nearly $3,000
per month. One of the boys
is both dyslexic and has
celiac disease, requiring
additional educational and

Steve Wolf, a self-employed stunt and special effects coordinator for filmand television, lives with his
wife Maegan and their sons Clayton, 16, Paxton, 12, and Dashton, 8, in Austin, Texas. The Wolf family
worries their income is too high to qualify for new tax credits implemented under the Affordable
Care Act.
grocery expenses. There
also are bills for life insur-
ance, orthodontia, utilities,
cellphones, car insurance for
a teenage driver, and home
and auto maintenance.
“When all is said and
done, we live well, but there
is no money left over,” Steve
Wolf said. “Any increase in
health insurance costs will
create a financial strain.
“But I keep it all in per-
spective. Unlike most
people on the planet, we’ve
never missed a meal, been
unable to find safe drinking
water, lacked for a home
to sleep in or had to go
without medical care. So
while this pinches us in
the pocket, I’m very lucky
to have these problems.”
Based on the Kaiser
Family Foundation’s online
calculator, the Wolf fam-
ily’s annual premium costs
for health insurance would
be almost double their cur-
rent costs if they purchase
a benchmark plan through
the federal exchange that
will be offered to Texas
residents.
If a yearly income of
$130,000 is assumed, the
Wolfs would pay an annual
premium of $14,804 for the
mid-range insurance plan,
called a Silver Plan. Their
current annual premium is
about $7,800.
Instead, they could buy a
less comprehensive Bronze
plan for $12,270 a year. Or
they would be eligible to
purchase catastrophic cov-
erage for even less, although
it’s not clear how much this
type of coverage would cost
the Wolfs. All the plans
would come with an annual
cost-sharinglimit of $12,700
for the family, meaning they
wouldn’t have to pay more
than that out-of-pocket after
paying their premiums.
Many health care expen-
ses aren’t predictable and
there is risk inherent in
choosing a plan with a
higher out-of-pocket costs
and lower premiums, but
the Wolfs are willing to take
their chances.
“Despite our experience,
we continue to hope that
we’ll have low out-of-pock-
et expenses, so we’d rather
have a lower premium and
the possibility of low costs
than to be locked in to high-
er premiums that cover
services that we might not
use,” Steve Wolf said.

HELEN KOLBICKA
Sept. 20, 2013
Helen Kolbicka, 91, a lifelong
resident of the Carey’s Patch
section of Ashley, passed away
peacefully on Friday morning,
Sept. 20, 2013, at the Hampton
House, Wilkes-Barre, where
she was recently a guest. Her
beloved husband was the late
Michael Kolbicka, who passed
away on Oct. 15, 1988. Together,
Michael and Helen shared nearly
50 wonderful years of marriage.
Born on Feb. 23, 1922, in
the Carey’s Patch section of
Ashley, Helen was the daughter
of the late Benjamin and Helen
(Olexa) Karboski.
A homemaker most of her
life, Helen lovingly tended to
the daily needs of her home
and family. After her husband
became disabled from a coal
mining incident, Helen became
employed as a quilter for the
former Funke’s Quilting, Ashley,
working there for almost 15
years.
Helen was a faithful member
of Holy Family Roman Catholic
Church, Sugar Notch.
A woman of many enjoy-
ments, Helen especially enjoyed
cooking for her family, cleaning
her home and entertaining com-
pany at her home.
Helen will forever be remem-
bered as a loving and devoted
wife, mother, grandmother,
great-grandmother, sister, aunt
and friend. Though her pres-
ence will be deeply missed, her
beautiful spirit will continue to
live on in the hearts of her loved
ones.
In addition to her parents,
Benjamin and Helen Karboski,
and her husband, Michael
Kolbicka, Helen was preceded
in death by her beloved son,
Michael Kolbicka, who passed
away in 1980; her broth-
ers, Benjamin and Anthony
Karboski; and her sisters, Regina
Gardzilla, Loretta Karboski and
Mary Diamonte.
Helen is survived by her
son, Lawrence Kolbicka and
his wife, Michaeline, Orlando,
Fla.; her daughter-in-law, Anna
Mae Kolbicka Hanlon and her
husband, Mark A. Hanlon,
Ashley; her six grandchildren,
Tara Pearson and her husband,
Erik, Todd Kolbicka and his
wife, Dawn, Michael Kolbicka
II and his wife, Maureen,
Lawrence Kolbicka II and his
wife, Erin, Mark Hanlon and

grandchildren, Todd Kolbicka
Jr., Benjamin Kolbicka, Kylee
Kolbicka, Jayna Kolbicka and
Hunter Pearson; her sister,
Jeanette Karboski, Ashley; and
numerous nieces and nephews.
The family of Helen Kolbicka
extends their thanks to the staff
of Hampton House for their
heartfelt care, as they were an
extended family to Helen.
Relatives and friends are
respectfully invited to attend
the funeral at 9 a.m. Tuesday
from the Joseph L. Wroblewski
Funeral Home, 56 Ashley St.,
Ashley, followed by a Mass of
Christian Burial to be celebrat-

ALICIA L.
KEMPINSKI
Sept. 18, 2013
MARK SCOLFORO
Associated Press
GETTYSBURG — The
autograph hounds wait-
ing expectantly in a hotel
lobby weren’t drawn by
actors, musicians or politi-
cians, but by a few dozen
men whose rare and distin-
guished achievements have
earned them the nation’s
highest military honor.
Nearly half of the 79 liv-
ing recipients of Medal of
Honor are attending the
gathering in Gettysburg,
where some of its first
recipients fought 150 years
ago.
The Medal of Honor
Society annual conven-
tion gives the public an
opportunity to collect
the signatures of the men
who have been honored
by Congress for risking
their lives beyond the call
of duty in combat, and
dozens of people waited
Thursday for them to
return from a luncheon at
a nearby farm once owned
by President Dwight
Eisenhower.
Dave Loether, 62, a
computer analyst from
Pittsburgh, was hoping to
add to the 55 signatures of
Medal of Honor recipients
he has collected on a U.S.
Army flag. Loether knows
many of their faces by
sight — and their stories
by heart.
“It’s a piece of cloth
with some ink on it — it’s
worthless,” Loether said.
“On the other hand, it’s
priceless.”
The recipients’ auto-
graphs sometimes end up
on public auction sites, but
Loether said he collects
them as a hobby that began
as a way to honor his sons
in the military.

President Barack Obama
presented him with the
honor in February for brav-
ery in defending an Army
outpost in Afghanistan
four years ago.
Now working in safety
for a construction com-
pany, Romesha, 32, said
he tries to remind himself
that he’s still the same per-
son he was before, a man
who has to take out the
trash himself.
“I never thought in a
million years I’d ever meet
a recipient, let alone be
one,” said Romesha, who
was attending his first con-
vention.
Eight soldiers died in
the daylong barrage by
the Taliban in the moun-
tains near Pakistan, and
Romesha was one of 22
wounded among the badly
outnumbered Americans.
He helped lead others to
safety and retrieve the
bodies of the U.S. dead.
Donald E. Ballard, the
society’s treasurer, became
a member for his bravery
while serving as a Navy
corpsman in Vietnam. He
threw himself on a grenade
while directing Marines to
carry a wounded comrade
to safety. The grenade did
not detonate.
Ballard, who now owns
a funeral home in Grain
Valley, Mo., said being a
Medal of Honor recipient
means being a role model,
like it or not.
“There is no Hero 101
book, I didn’t take the
course,” Ballard said. “I
have to live up their expec-
tations, or my expectations
of what they expect.”
Ballard said a major
focus of the organization
these days is its character
development program for
middle and high school
students promoting values
like courage and sacrifice.
Recipients were scheduled
to meet Friday with local
students.
Other scheduled events
included a town hall forum
at Gettysburg College
and a concert on the

the United States Marine
Band on Friday and an
award dinner on Saturday.

COLUMBUS, Ohio — An Ohio
police chief who invited his nearly
85,000 Facebook followers to his
small town’s community festival
this weekend expects at least 1,000
from near and far to show up.
Brimfield Township Chief David
Oliver started the department’s
Facebook page more than three
years ago in the hopes of reach-
ing a few hundred people in his
northeast Ohio community. But his
posts mixing humor, blunt opin-
ion, community engagement and
rants against “mopes” — criminals
and other ne’er-do-wells — draw
an audience much larger than the
approximately 10,000 residents the
department serves.
The department’s Facebook fans
surpassed that of the Philadelphia
police page this summer and trail
only the much larger Boston and
New York departments.
Oliver said more than 1,000
signed up to visit this weekend.
They hail from all over, Arkansas
and Arizona to Maryland and
Mississippi.
Andy Marek, who is making the
seven-hour drive from Interlochen,
Mich., said Oliver’s character and
outsize following convinced him
“there’s something to that town,”
and he’s eager to see it.
“You can’t have a police chief like
him unless you’ve got some other
quality people,” the 41-year-old
sales associate said. “I’m curious
to see what the town’s like, and to
meet Chief Oliver.”
Overall, local officials expect
several thousand more people
than usual to come to the annual
Brimfest. The only folks not wel-
come are the mopes, and any who
risk a visit may get acquainted
with several other law enforcement
agencies on hand patrolling for
trouble.
The event started Thursday
and includes fireworks, fair foods,
competitive line-dancing and a
Saturday parade that Oliver has
transformed this year into a tribute
for veterans. More than 400 will
participate, including some World
War II veterans and two busloads
of patients from the Louis Stokes
Cleveland VA Medical Center.
“I think that people are coming
out because of the idea and because
of, you know, it’s kind of an all-
American thing,” Oliver told The
Associated Press.
Another draw will be the big,
beefy chief himself and the launch
of his book, “No Mopes Allowed.”
The book proceeds go to a non-
profit foundation he and his wife
created to benefit local programs
and sexually abused children. It’s
the latest community betterment
project by the chief and his officers,
who also have pitched “no mopes”
gear made by a local shop to raise
more than $10,000 for school secu-
rity improvements.
Kelly Whelan is driving for a lit-
tle over five hours from Ashburn,
Va., to attend Brimfest — and get
a signed copy of Oliver’s book.
Whelan, 45, made hotel reserva-
tions in April after reading Oliver’s
invitation.
Whelan will attend the festival
in a group of six. She and a friend
bought Virginia police badges and
are hoping to swap them for one
from Brimfield.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. —
Black women are joining
traditionally white sorori-
ties at the University of
Alabama amid efforts to
end racial segregation
within Greek-letter social
groups, the head of the
school said Friday.
University President
Judy Bonner said 11
black students and three
students from other
minority groups received
bids, or invitations, to
join a historically white
sorority. Of that group,
four black students and
two students from other
minority backgrounds
have accepted those invi-
tations. Bonner said. She
expected the numbers to
rise as the academic year
continues.
“I am confident that we
will achieve our objective
of a Greek system that is
inclusive, accessible and
welcoming to students of
all races and ethnicities,”
Bonner said in a video
statement. “We will not
tolerate anything less.”
The university’s Greek
organizations have been
segregated by race since
the first black students
enrolled and created
social organizations. One
oversight organization
has been composed of
white sororities and the
other composed of minor-
ity sororities. Only a
handful of blacks attempt-
ed to join the historically
white Greek groups at
Alabama, where there are
also historically black fra-
ternities and sororities.

Count on tax-averse libertarians to
champion a user fee for the nation’s
highways.
A recently released study by the lib-
ertarian Reason Foundation proposes
tolling all 49,000 miles of the nation’s
interstate highway system at 3.5 cents
a mile for cars, 14 cents for trucks. The
toll could be adjusted annually for infla-
tion.
Pennsylvania has considered tolling
Interstate 80 before — and this news-
paper opposed it. But year after year,
states are collecting lower gas-tax rev-
enues, the result of more fuel-efficient
vehicles, alternative-energy vehicles and
fewer miles driven. And year after year
of postponed repairs have placed the
essential maintenance of the nation’s
badly aging infrastructure out of reach
of the available funds. Tolling the inter-
states — all interstates, not just I-80 —
deserves consideration.
Consider the issues:
• An Associated Press analysis of
607,380 bridges in the most recent fed-
eral National Bridge Inventory showed
that 65,605 were structurally deficient,
and 20,808 fracture critical. Of those,
nearly 8,000 were both, a situation
experts say represents a red flag. Some
of these bridges, like the I-23 bridge that
collapsed in 2007 in Minnesota, are in
the highway system.
• Pennsylvania hosts an outsized
share of deficient bridges, but the trans-
portation funding the state General
Assembly passed in the 2013-14 budget
won’t begin to cover them and maintain
all the state roads, too. Last month the
state Department of Transportation
announced new weight restrictions
on some 1,000 state and local bridges
aimed at slowing their deterioration. Of
those, 53 are in Monroe County.
• Roads are costly. The International
Bridge, Tunnel and Turnpike
Association estimates that rebuilding
the entire interstate system over the
next half century will cost as much as
$2.5 trillion.
Interstate tolls will place an addi-
tional financial burden on thousands
of Monroe County residents, from
commuters to truckers, and on the
thousands of tourists, who, like other
interstate drivers, already pay a toll to
cross the Delaware Water Gap bridge.
But Pennsylvania is scrounging for rev-
enues to support its roads and highway
system.
Implementing interstate tolls would
require Congress to change federal law,
andgettingelectedofficials tomakesuch
an unpopular move — even one that
does not “raise taxes” — hardly seems
likely. But like it or not, the nation must
properly support its interstate highway
systemsomehow. The economy and our
very freedom of movement depend on
it. Taxes alone no longer cover the cost.
Given the high stakes — compro-
mised public safety and inadequate
funding — tolling the interstates offers
Pennsylvania and other states a new
funding source that is desperately need-
ed.

MALLARD FILLMORE DOONESBURY
This week I traveled the com-
monwealth to talk about “Healthy
Pennsylvania,” my plan to make sure
every Pennsylvanian has access to qual-
ity, affordable health care.
From the Riverview Health Clinic in
Harrisburg to the Boys and Girls Club
in Pittsburgh, I shared a common-sense
plan that provides health care choices,
reforms a broken Medicaid system and
expands the private health care market,
while reducing government bureau-
cracy and helping Pennsylvanians get
healthy and find jobs.
The goals of “Healthy Pennsylvania”
are common-sense and vital:
Make sure every child in the state
has medical coverage.
Be certain every resident has access
to a family doctor or health care pro-
vider.
Use our state’s world-class technol-
ogy to make certain that, no matter
where they live, every Pennsylvanian
has access to a specialist when they
need one.
In short: make sure that every
Pennsylvanian has access to direct
medical care.
This is a Pennsylvania solution to
the unique needs of a large and diverse
state. It’s not enough to design a sys-
tem. It has to be a system that works
— right here and right now.
We will work with the Legislature
to reauthorize the state’s Children’s
Health Insurance Program by the end
of 2013 and eliminate the six-month
waiting period so kids don’t lose access
to their doctors.
At the same time, I plan to expand
the use of community-based pri-
mary care clinics around the state and
increase funding for loan forgiveness
programs to attract doctors and other
health care professionals to rural and
underserved areas of Pennsylvania.
We will continue to utilize and
grow technology so that specialists
can treat patients in every corner of
Pennsylvania through telemedicine.
We will extend the reach of our long-
term care services and supports for our
older Pennsylvanians
and people living with
disabilities. And we will
work with our communi-
ties to focus on overall
public health and well-
ness and ensure safe and
appropriate access to
prescription medication.
One of the key
pieces to the “Healthy
Pennsylvania” program
is finding the best way
to apply federal dollars
to insure more than a
half-million of our citizens who lack
health coverage.
The answer is two-fold: Use the
current Medicaid program more effi-
ciently, and expand coverage through
the private sector.
Currently, one in six Pennsylvanians
— more than 2 million people — are
on Medicaid, and it costs Pennsylvania
taxpayers $19 billion annually.
This week I sent a proposal to the
Obama Administration to reform the
current Medicaid system in a way
that will make certain it will be there
for our neediest in years to come. We
need to align Medicaid benefits with
plans that now cover working, insured
Pennsylvanians. The current system
offers a confusing array of benefit pack-
ages that don’t match the needs of the
patients who rely on them.
As a result, Pennsylvania pays 34
percent more per recipient than the
national average.
We need to include cost sharing and
individual responsibility. We need to
eliminate confusing co-payments and
implement a modest monthly premium
– giving people greater responsibility
for their own health care.
And, we must help able-bodied
Pennsylvanians find a job through
job training and work search require-
ments. This plan requires able-bodied,
unemployed Medicaid recipients to use
Pennsylvania’s Job Gateway program,
which connects people looking for
work with jobs and job training pro-
grams. It enables them to engage in a
meaningful work search similar to the
current requirements for those receiv-
ing unemployment compensation.
For newly eligible, uninsured
Pennsylvanians, we have the “Healthy
Pennsylvania Option,” which provides
them with high quality health care cov-
erage from the private sector.
If the federal government approves
Pennsylvania’s plan to reform our exist-
ing Medicaid program, the common-
wealth would be in a position to use
federal dollars to offer access to a pri-
vate health care coverage option to low-
income, newly eligible Pennsylvanians
– up to 133 percent of federal poverty
– who are uninsured.
The “Healthy Pennsylvania Option,”
enables residents to buy private health
insurance plans through the recently
established federal health insurance
exchange.
Just like the reformed Medicaid
program, these individuals would
receive access to quality health care, be
enabled to search for work or partici-
pate in job training and pay a modest
monthly premium.
This is a plan that works for our
state, our people and our children.
We can’t afford to expand a broken
Medicaid system to cover one-in-four
of our citizens because of a federal
mandate. We can insure every citizen
using our own initiative and sense of
personal independence.
We need a plan that works. “Healthy
Pennsylvania” will.
Tom Corbett is Republican governor of Pennsyl-
vania.
COMMENTARY: GOV. TOM CORBETT
THE TIMES LEADER www.timesleader.com Saturday, September 21, 2013 PAGE 9A
Editorial
It has been nearly six months since
Gov. Tom Corbett changed his tune a
bit about receiving a few billion fed-
eral dollars in “Obamacare” subsidies to
plug holes in Pennsylvania’s health care
safety net. Yet the governor remains
a long way from delivering on the new
goal he announced Monday of giving all
Pennsylvanians “access to quality and
affordable health care.”
Many doubt that his plan to use fed-
eral Medicaid dollars to subsidize private
insurance policies for 520,000 uninsured
Pennsylvanians will gain required federal
approval. Critics who have already taken
to calling Corbett “One-term Tom” are
right to wonder whether the governor’s
Medicaid proposal is only a political
stalling tactic.
Corbett’s track record on social pro-
grams offers little reason for optimism.
Since its first month in power, the
Corbett administration has busied itself
with discussions of ideas to close wid-
ening gaps in health coverage and cash
aid for the state’s neediest, including
93,000 children who have been tossed
off the rolls of both the joint state-federal
Children’s Health Insurance Program
and Medicaid.
Earlier, Corbett was a spirited com-
batant in failed, Republican-led efforts
nationally to scuttle “Obamacare” — a
rear-guard campaign still firing pas-
sions among tea-party faithful. At least,
that long, twisted road led Corbett to
the right place, with his declaration
Monday that he’s finally ready to pro-
pose terms under which the state would
accept “Obamacare” funds earmarked
for expanding Medicaid to thousands
of people, many in jobs that don’t offer
affordable health plans.
But apparently fearing what Grover
Norquist and his Club for Growth bud-
dies would think, Corbett wants current
Medicaid recipients to pay a modest
monthly premium, which is now barred
by law, and fulfill a work-search require-
ment, which no other state has linked to
health care coverage.
Although the cost-sharing and job-
hunting mandates could potentially
help the state meet its budget bottom
line, and boost the job-market efforts of
individuals, they also could become the
gotcha provisions that result in people
losing their health coverage. Federal
officials, taking the correct stance in say-
ing they will try to work with Corbett,
should press to avoid any of the obvious
pitfalls in his plan.
While that process plays out, unfor-
tunately, the status quo on health care
under Corbett remains wholly unaccept-
able. The governor’s seemingly endless
deliberation over the right course for the
state in expanding health care coverage
will almost certainly result in a further
delay of a year or more in covering the
uninsured.
That means the state will lose out
on $1.6 billion in federal Medicaid dol-
lars due to flow in 2014, plus another
$2.8 billion in related economic impact
to the state economy, including 30,000
new jobs generated from a straight-line
expansion of Medicaid’s rolls under
“Obamacare.”
That potential gravy train further
undermines Corbett’s insistence that the
state can’t afford to expand Medicaid.
Three independent studies show the
returnonexpandingcoveragewouldmore
than cover the cost. Such analyses helped
drive a solid state Senate vote favoring
a traditional expansion of Medicaid. It’s
not too late for Pennsylvania to take that
assured course, even now.

LCTA numbers
just don’t add up
I see where the Luzerne County
Transportation Authority, which
adopted the most expensive of the
various streetcar options (none of
which is a good idea), hopes for an
annual ridership of 1.4 million.
Let’s do the math.
This works out to an average of
3,835 riders every day, 365 days a
year.
Seattle’s streetcar, in recent
Express-News articles, boasted about
averages of 1,400 a day. Tampa,
termed less successful by the Express-
News, averages 950 riders per day.
The LCTA board’s ridership math
seemingly is as faulty as its math in
adopting a system that will cost mil-
lion more than LCTA has to spend.
Thanks for the great stewardship of
our tax dollars, guys!

Summary: Heavy showers and thunderstorms will bring drenching downpours to
the Northeast and the South today. Flooding will be a concern across portions of
the Deep South.
While Democrats U.S.
Sen. Bob Casey and U.S.
Rep. Matt Cartwright
denounced the vote by the
House of Representatives
to cut an additional
$40 billion from the
Supplemental Nutrition
Assistance Program
(SNAP), Republican U.S.
Rep. Lou Barletta defend-
ed the action, saying it
will help eliminate fraud.
Casey, D-Scranton,
said the House’s extreme
plan builds upon “already
unprecedented cuts” to
the SNAP program even
though economic data
show every dollar in
SNAP spending gener-
ates $1.70 in economic
activity. Casey vowed to
fight against the House’s
new plan and detailed
the impact that this new
round of cuts will have on
vulnerable Pennsylvania
children, families and
seniors.
“The House of
Representatives’ plan to
institute further draconian
cuts to the SNAP program
is bad for the economy,
Pennsylvania’s children,
families and
seniors,” Casey
said.
B a r l e t t a ,
R-Hazleton, said
no one in America
should go hun-
gry, and every-
one who needs
assistance should
have access to
it. However, he
said, the pro-
gram should
prevent people
from defrauding
the system, tak-
ing benefits and
hurting those
who actually need
them.
“Under this
plan, no one who
is eligible for food
stamps will be
denied coverage,”
Barletta said. “It prevents
lottery winners, tradi-
tional college students,
the deceased, illegal immi-
grants and those convicted
of drug offenses from
accessing benefits.”
Barletta said the GOP
plan allows states to drug-
test recipients if they
choose to do so and it
stops the use of taxpayer
money to advertise in an
effort to encourage
people to enroll in
the food stamp pro-
gram. These steps
will reduce costs
and preserve the
benefits for eligible
recipients, he said.
Casey said fraud
numbers in the
SNAP program
have never been
lower. “It’s not
zero,” Casey said.
“But it’s a lot lower
than other federal
programs.”
C a r t w r i g h t ,
D-Moosic, said
the cuts would
deny basic food
for nearly 4 million
Americans next
year. The measure
passed the House
by a vote of 217 to
210.
Some 28,000 people
in Cartwright’s district
struggle to put food on the
table for their families, he
said. More than 90 per-
cent of people on SNAP
are children, the elderly,
disabled or already work-
ing, he said.
“These devastating
cuts will harm children,
seniors, veterans and
Americans looking for
work,” Cartwright said.
“SNAP is a vital tool to
fight hunger and help
unemployed Americans
feed their families as they
seek new employment,
send their children to
school and get themselves
back on their feet.”
Casey said projections
call for an estimated 14
million people to leave
the program over the next
10 years as the economy
improves. The average
benefit per individual is
about $4.28 per day, he
said, while the national
average is $4.40 per day.
For the 2012 fiscal year,
the average monthly ben-
efit was $128.42, he said.
The House bill now
goes to the Senate, where
Casey said he will do
whatever he can to stop it.
“They will never succeed
in cutting $40 billion,” he
said. “But I’m sure there
will be some compromise
and there will be cuts. But
not $40 billion.”

how the boy responded.
When the teen got into
Paulish’s vehicle, the con-
versation turned sexual,
the priest told police, and
the pair began removing
their pants, according to
the affidavit. The teen,
who was interviewed and
examined at the Children’s
Advocacy Center, told
police he then performed a
sex act on the priest.
Paulish, whose address
was listed as 450 Third St.,
Blakely, has been serving
as an assistant pastor at
Prince of Peace Parish in
Old Forge, but in past years
he was assigned to posts in
Exeter, Hazleton, Wilkes-
Barre and Bear Creek,
according to Diocese of
Scranton records.
“I wish to acknowl-
edge how unsettling this
is to me personally and
to countless others,”
Scranton Bishop Joseph C.
Bambera said, as the dio-
cese released a statement
pledging to cooperate with
investigators.
“Upon being notified
of this incident, the cleric
was immediately removed
from his assignment and
his faculties to exercise
priestly ministry were
suspended,” the diocesan
statement read.
Diocesan officials asked
that anyone who might
have been sexually abused
by Paulish or any mem-
ber of the clergy notify
the Lackawanna County
District Attorney’s Office
at 570-963-6717 or local
law enforcement.
“As for the potential
for other victims we will
continue to review all
of the evidence and fol-
low any potential leads,”
McCambridge told The
Times Leader.
The leader of a national
organization for victims of
priestly abuse on Friday
questioned whether the
diocese’s actions go far
enough. “What do I think
of the (bishop’s) state-
ment? In three words:
the bare minimum,” said
David Clohessy, executive
director of the Chicago-
based Survivors Network
of those Abused by Priests.
Instead, Clohessy said,
Bambera needs to person-
ally take his appeal to wor-
shippers at parishes where
Paulish worked.
“We’re talking about
centuries of Catholic
parishioners thinking, ‘If
I say anything, I’ll bring
shame onto my parish,
my faith,’” Clohessy said.
“It should be an emphatic
personal appeal that will
jolt people into coming
forward and calling 911” if
they have anything further
to report.
The diocese also
released a list of Paulish’s
assignments over the quar-
ter century since he was
ordained, including several
stays in Luzerne County.
Paulish’s first twoassign-
ments were in Clarks
Summit and Williamsport,
but he went on to serve as
an assistant pastor at St.
Cecilia’s in Exeter from
January to June 1992,
followed by a posting to
Most Precious Blood,
Hazleton, from June 1992
to July 1993. He returned
to Luzerne County in
January 1994, serving as
chaplain of Little Flower
Manor, Wilkes-Barre, until
July 2000.
Paulish returned to
Luzerne County again
in 2006, serving seven
months back at St. Cecilia
in Exeter. He later served
as administrator and pas-
tor at St. Elizabeth in Bear
Creek between 2008 and
2011.
Lackawanna County
detectives charged Paulish
with involuntary deviate
sexual intercourse with a
person under 16, indecent
assault of a person under
16, unlawful contact with
a minor (sexual offenses),
corruption of minors and
indecent exposure.
Paulish was arraigned
beforeDistrict JudgeJames
A. Gibbons and committed
to the Lackawanna County
Prison in lieu of $50,000
bail. A preliminary hearing
was set for Wednesday.

Priest
said they will include a one-
year delay in “Obamacare”
in the measure to reinforce
their determination to
eradicate the program.
The same bill will
include provisions to
reduce deficits and stay
the administration’s envi-
ronmental agenda as the
GOP seeks gains for its
own priorities. Raising the
cost of Medicare for finan-
cially better-off beneficia-
ries is one likely provision
to be added, according to
numerous officials. So,
too, is a ban on federal
regulations on greenhouse
gas emissions.
Obama responded in
remarks before an audi-
ence at a Ford assembly
plant near Kansas City,
Mo.
He blamed a “faction
on the far right of the
Republican Party” for
threatening to shut down
government operations
or default on government
debts. “They’re focused
on trying to mess with
me,” he told plant work-
ers. “They’re not focused
on you.”
Unlike other budget
showdowns of the recent
past, this one pits younger
Republicans in the House
against GOP veterans in
the Senate, although not
to the extent it does one
party against the other.
Republicans are united
in their opposition to the
health care law, which
they say will force the
price of coverage higher
and prompt employers
to reduce work hours for
workers. But they disagree
on how to attack it.
The bill that won pas-
sage on Friday was all but
forced on Boehner and fel-
low House GOP leaders,
who fear a repeat of the
twin government shut-
downs nearly two decades
ago that inflicted seri-
ous political damage on
Republicans.
Caution on the part
of GOP elders was over-
whelmed by tea party-
aligned lawmakers, who
were in turn responding
to the urgings of outside
groups and their allies in
the Senate, Sens. Ted Cruz
of Texas and Mike Lee of
Utah among them.
The vote in the House
was almost completely
along party lines, and the
administration threatened
in advance to veto the bill
if it should pass the Senate
as well. Among Democrats,
only Reps. Mike McIntyre
of North Carolina and Jim
Matheson of Utah support-
ed the measure. Virginia
Rep. Scott Rigell was the
only Republican voting
against it.
The Republican rally
in the Capitol afterward
was unusual for its overtly
political tone.
“You know, many
Senate Republicans have
promised to leave no
stone unturned fighting
for this bill, and all of us
here support that effort.
We’re calling on Senate
Democrats to do the same
thing,” said Majority
Leader Eric Cantor of
Virginia, who then asked
how four Democrats who
face re-election in swing
states next year will be
voting. Among the four,
Sens. Mark Pryor of
Arkansas, Mark Begich
of Alaska, Kay Hagan of
North Carolina and Mary
Landrieu of Louisiana all
voted for the law when
it passed Congress, and
none has indicated a vote
for nullification.
Instead, the likelihood is
that the Senate will strip
off the provision to defund
the health care law, as well
a different section that
prioritizes debt payments
in the event the Treasury
lacks the funds to meet all
its obligations. Reid and
other Democrats then plan
to send back to the House
a bill whose sole purpose
would be to prevent any
interruption in govern-
ment services on Oct. 1.
The next move would
be up to Boehner and
his famously fractious
rank and file. Unless they
decide to surrender quick-
ly, they could respond with
yet another attack on the
health care law, perhaps
a one-year delay in the
requirement for individu-
als to purchase insurance.
Senate Republican Leader
Mitch McConnell of
Kentucky backs legislation
to that effect, and Obama
has already announced a
one-year postponement
in a requirement for busi-
nesses to provide coverage
to their employees.
In recent years, the
threat of massive interrup-
tions in government ser-
vices has waned as agen-
cies refine their plans for
possible shutdowns, but
lawmakers cautioned the
effects could be harmful.

time possible,” according
to the civil complaint.
The complaint alleges
FEMA officials were in
frequent contact with
Herron about finding
permanent housing dur-
ing 2012. Herron alleg-
edly told FEMA officials
that he had contacted
rental sources, but rents
were too high for his lim-
ited income.
“I’m doing my best,
what do they want me to
do?” Herron said. “I have
my two boys. I have to
keep my head together.”
FEMA on Sept. 7,
2012, told Herron he
had 15 days to vacate the
trailer. A second 15-day
notice to vacate was
issued on Oct. 17.
Despite the notices to
leave the trailer, Herron
remained.
FEMA officials met
with Herron on Nov.
21 to determine efforts
at finding a permanent
residence.
“FEMA only had evi-
dence that Mr. Herron
applied for one facil-
ity/rental and could not
provide FEMA with a
firm commitment that
he would put in applica-
tions at other facilities
available to him,” the
suit states.
FEMA claims the agen-
cy had provided Herron
with $28,000 in replace-
ment housing assis-
tance, including $1,700
in rental assistance. The
lawsuit alleges Herron
was unable to validate
that he used the funds
for housing.
“They’re charging me
$1,125 a month to live
there,” Herron said. “I
have to feed my kids.
How am I supposed to
pay them?”
Herron said he has not
seen the complaint and
was made aware of it by
a reporter.

“A month from now,
I’m sure I’ll have gone

There was one company
she declined to name that
ordered 21 new signs dis-
playing the area code.
“I think businesses are
thinking about dialing the
area code themselves to
make call,” but not think-
ing it through to the next
step of informing their
customers that they’ll
have to do the same,
Levine said.
While most businesses
have marketing material,
business cards and let-
terhead featuring area
codes because they often
interact with those out
of town, the signage dis-
played locally doesn’t
always follow suit.
Anyone driving
throughout the Wilkes-
Barre area Friday would
have noticed signs hang-
ing from facades along
Wyoming Avenue missing
the area code. Burgitt’s
City Taxi cabs all lacked
the three digits, too.
Several businesses along
Public Square, includ-
ing Leo Matus News and
Liberty Tax, had only sev-
en-digit numbers on their
windows or doors.
Several food business-
es, including Mimmo’s

BERWICK — Those black
shirts worn by many Wyoming
Valley West students had a mes-
sage on them for the football team
—Strive For Five.
Berwick had another motto
Friday night — No More After
Four.
The Dawgs used a strong run-
ning game in the second half to
snap a four-game losing streak to
Valley West with a 42-28 victory
in a Wyoming Valley Conference
interdivisional football game at
Crispin Field.
Berwick (4-0) hadn’t defeated
the Spartans (3-1) since 2008. The
Dawgs were embarrassed in last
year’s meeting 33-15.
“To reverse the curse my senior
year,” Berwick left tackle Kyle
Stearley said, “it’s a dream.”
Stearley and the big boys up
front turned the contest in the sec-
ond half. Berwick threw only four
times in the second half while run-
ning the ball 31 times.
Running back Dain Kowalski,
who lost a fumble on his second
carry of the game and rushed just
one more time in the first half,
scored two fourth-quarter touch-
downs to help the Dawgs pull
away. Kowalski’s 20-yard TD run
with 4:03 to play gave Berwick a
42-21 lead and sent many of the
black-shirt crew to the exits. He
finished with 65 yards on 11 car-
ries.
Berwick also utilized fullback
Jorden Stout quite often in the
second half. He had six of his eight
rushes over the final two quarters.

HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL
Lions anxious to rebound fromdefeat
DEREK LEVARSE
[email protected]
Paul Haynes practically sighed when
he said it. The first-year Kent State coach
has been tasked with preparing his team
for back-to-back games at LSU and Penn
State.
“It doesn’t get any easier,” Haynes
said. “We go from Death Valley to Happy
Valley. Which isn’t very happy right now.”
No, indeed.
The Nittany Lions have been in an
ornery mood this week, particularly on
defense, following their 34-31 loss to
Central Florida. It was the first time since
joining the Big Ten that the Lions had
allowed 34 points in a non-conference
game at Beaver Stadium.
They return there today to face the
Golden Flashes in their final tune-up
before their Big Ten schedule opens in
October.
Senior leaders like safety Malcolm
Willis have tried to set the tone right at
the start of the week.
“Willis got in everybody’s ear after
practice on Monday and let guys know
we have to be on everything this week,”
sophomore corner Jordan Lucas said.
“We can’t let up on anything in practice.
Run to the ball, and when we get there,
we have to be nasty.
“He stepped up and let us know we
have to get it done.”
Penn State had reversed its 0-2 start
from a year ago and the defense had
done its job, shutting down two strug-
gling offenses in Syracuse and Eastern
Michigan.

WILKES-BARRE —
Savannah Robinson just
wouldn’t stop smiling.
Her grin was wide and
bright long after meeting
with her teammates, and then
returning to her team’s bench
and sending out a text or two.
So what caused all this joy
to come over the Coughlin
sophomore? A moment that
she’ll remember “forever.”
Robinson scored in the 13th
minute of overtime to lift the
Crusaders to a 1-0 victory over
Wyoming Seminary in WVC
field hockey Friday.
“It’s pretty stressful in over-
time,” Robinson said of her
first varsity goal, which led to
a pile of Crusaders celebrat-
ing on the field and an ice bag
for her shoulder afterward. “I
ran to my best friend Brigid
(Wood). I think I gave her a
concussion (from the celebra-
tory collision).”
It was a wild flurry that led
to the game’s only goal, as
Coughlin came down the field
after repelling a Wyoming
Seminary penalty corner and
ensuing long corner oppor-
tunity. Brigid Wood started
the attack inside the Blue
Knights’ circle with a reverse-
stick shot that Sem goalkeeper
Mackenzie Gagliardi swatted
down with the blocker on her
left hand.
The rebound was pounced
on by Kaitlyn Lukashewski,
who fired a ticketed shot
toward the Sem goal. Gagliardi
was able to get her left boot
on what looked like a sure
goal. Then Wood pushed that
rebound to Robinson.
“I was really nervous as
the ball came toward me,”
Robinson said. “I just tried to
hit it as hard as I could.”
Despite a lack of goals, the
game was an exciting up-and-
down the field extravaganza.
As quickly as Sarah Zbierski
or Katie Colleran would send a
long ball upfield for Coughlin,
Tali Dressler and Isabella
DelPriore were firing the ball
right back into Crusaders ter-
ritory.
“They’ve started the last
two years,” Coughlin coach
Colleen Wood said of her
defensive backs. “They are
able to combine with the
speed we have with our mids.
They’re really been working
together.
“It would ease my mind if
they could connect for a goal
or two earlier in the game,
though,” Wood added with a
laugh.
This was the third time the
teams had met at Guthrie
Field, having weather post-
pone them Sept. 11, then
being halted by storms after
playing 21:36 of the first half
Sept. 12. The game resumed
Friday with 8:24 remaining in
the first half.
The Blue Knights had some
great chances that just didn’t
connect.
Midway through the second
half, a 40-yard drive by Marina
Barnak looked to be heading
over the end line, but instead
clanged off the goal post and
sat in front of the goal, only to
be cleared away by Crusaders
keeper M’Kensie Lee.
In overtime, Mallory
Lefkowicz capped a great
game with two chances that
were nearly converted.
Her reverse-stick shot on a
penalty corner led to a battle
in front between Lee and
Sem’s Alexis Quick for the
ball at the post. Lee won that
battle with a glove save.
On the ensuing long corner,
Morgan Malone centered to
Lefkowicz for a shot that went
just wide to the long side.
“We know this is always
a tough battle,” Sem coach
Karen Klassner said. “We
put ourselves in position to
succeed, but you get a game
like this sometimes. We
had some good chances but
just had trouble finishing.

Mazonkey runs wild for Northwest
JOE BARESS
For The Times Leader
SHICKSHINNY — From the first
snap, Northwest’s offensive game-
plan was clear. Give the ball to
Austin Mazonkey and let him lead
the team to a 4-0 start.
Thirty-seven carries, 352 yards
and four touchdowns later, the
Rangers remained undefeated with
a 26-20 victory over GAR at home
on Friday.
“He’s a great workhorse and
he plays both sides of the ball,”
Northwest coach Carl Majer said.
“He has the ability to break it, he
runs hard and he has good vision.”
Mazonkey took his first carry to
the house on a 72-yard touchdown
run on the first play of the game to
give the Rangers a 6-0 advantage.
On the ensuing Northwest pos-
session, the Rangers called on
Mazonkey six times, leading to
another touchdown.
GAR fought back in the second
quarter when Rashaun Mathis
found Rashaun Jackson streaking
down the left side of the field for a
27-yard touchdown reception.
Rich Sickler then scurried for a
45-yard touchdown run before the
end of the half to tie the game at 13.
Sickler finished the game with 117
yards rushing on 19 carries.
The game remained scoreless
in the second half until Mazonkey
ended the defensive struggle in the
fourth quarter with a 1-yard touch-
down run to give the Rangers a
20-13 lead.
Mazonkey added his fourth touch-
down with 3:39 remaining in the
game to give Northwest a 26-13
advantage.
With the game almost out of reach
the Grenadiers (0-4) continued
to battle. Facing fourth down and

For The Times Leader
Hats go off to trainer Chris Oakes and his trotter
Frau Blucher! The 3-year-old Broadwall Hall filly trot-
ted a world record mile in 1:53.1 over the half-mile
Delaware County Fair oval, in a $52,194 division of the
Buckette on Wednesday afternoon.
This comes just five short days after she dead-heated
for victory in the $250,000 PASS Final at the Meadows
last Friday with her stablemate Classic Martine.
Certainly it’s been one super season for Oakes and his
trio of 3-year-old trotting fillies.
Congratulations go out to Oakes and all the connec-
tions of these fine trotters. It will be interesting to
see what happens now with the Breeders Crown right
around the corner.

PittstonArea defense holds for frst win
Nick Wagner
[email protected]
TUNKHANNOCK —
Pittston Area has had a monkey
clinging to its back through the
first three weeks on 2013. The
Patriots have played well, just
not well enough to win.
But after a gutsy, defen-
sive effort Friday night in
Tunkhannock, the Patriots
finally got over the hump with
a 12-10 win over the Tigers in
a Wyoming Valley Conference
football game.
Although the Patriots didn’t
win the battle in the box score,
they did win the battle on
the field. The Tigers totaled
nearly 80 more yards than the
Patriots while rushing for 225
on the ground.
But the feeling of getting
that first win throws all the
stats out the window.
“It’s great,” Pittston Area
coach Mike Barrett said. “You
get that monkey off your back.
It wasn’t pretty. But I thought
we came out and played well
early on.”
They did play well early,
scoring all 12 of their points
in the first half. And it was the
defense that was most impres-
sive.
Although Tunkhannock’s
Brian Cywinski ran for 142
yards on 23 carries, including
a 40-yard touchdown early in
the fourth quarter, the Patriot
defense looked as fast as it has
all season.
“We came together on
defense a lot better than we did
in the first three weeks,” run-
ning back/linebacker Hassan
Maxwell said. “Guys were
on point and everyone was
focused. We just have to step
up and try and get that win
next week.”
The Patriots’ defense was
good getting to the football.
But sometimes tackling was a
problem. Cywinski made a few
highlight reel plays breaking
would-be tacklers and gaining
a few extra yards on multiple
plays.
“I thought we were in the
right spots but we gave them
a lot of yards after contact,”
Barrett said. “But it’s some-
thing we can go back and work
on.”
Tunkhannock’s offense
started well moving the foot-
ball. Its first drive, however,
was derailed near midfield by
a few penalties. That led to a
punt that put the ball back to
Pittston Area for its second
possession.
It didn’t take long for
Pittston Area to ignite the
Tunkhannock scoreboard.
It was a six-play drive that
burned 3:30 off the clock that
got Pittston Area its first score.
Quarterback James Emmett hit
a sliding Michael Harth in the
end zone from 12 yards out and
a 6-0 lead.
Following a three-and-out
from the Tigers, and a 22-yard
punt return from Josh John,
the Patriots needed just three
plays, capped off by a Maxwell
15-yard run, to balloon the lead
to 12-0.

Defensive battle
goes to Crusaders
WILKES-BARRE —
Coughlin’s Dave Parsnik
only touched the ball
four times during Friday
night’s game against
Dallas.
The quantity didn’t mat-
ter much as the senior
wide receiver/defensive
back made the most of
his touches hauling in the
lone touchdown of the
game then grabbing a late
interception to seal the
Crusaders’ 7-0 win over
Dallas at Wilkes-Barre
Memorial Stadium.
Parsnik wasn’t the only
contributor on defense
for Coughlin (4-0) as
the the unit only allowed
67 total yards to the
Mountaineers, picked off
quarterback Justin Mucha
three times and recovered
a fumble. Darik Johnson
had a pair of interceptions
for the Coughlin defense.
“We hung around on
defense. We had some
good offensive plays and
when we had to make
to them we had to make
them,” Parsnik said. “We
covered well (defensively)
and we prepared well and
we knew what they were
going to try to run on us
and we had good depth.”
Dallas (0-4), which has
scored just seven points all
season, is known around
the Wyoming Valley
Conference for having a
stout defense as well.
In fact, Coughlin was
coming off a game against
Western Wayne when
it rolled up nearly 450
yards of offense. But the
Mountaineers defensive
lineman Ryan Monk,
Rocky Rutkoski and Mark
Michno kept pressure
on Crusaders’ quarter-
back Tim Pilch sacking
the senior four times and
holding the team to just
149 total yards.
“Their three guys up
front, Monk, Michno and
Rutkoski are three studs,”
Coughlin coach Ciro Cinti
said. “They’re three loads
and they play hard. They
come and they’ll put the
leather to ya.”
At halftime, the teams
combined for just 99 total
yards with Dallas hold-
ing the edge in the score-
less first 24 minutes. The
Mountaineers also had
three sacks in the first
half.
Cinti and his staff made
some blocking adjust-
ments at halftime and it
worked like a charm.
On the opening drive of
the second half, Coughlin
drove 54 yards on nine
plays capped off by a
20-yard scoring strike
from Pilch to Parsnik for
the only touchdown of the
game with the clock read-
ing 7:07.

Meyers’ Nate Mahalak (33) opened the scoring with a 6-yard touchdown late in the first quarter Friday at Nanticoke. Mahalak had 64 of
the Mohawks’ 245 yards on the ground.

NANTICOKE —
Already the leading pass-
er and rusher for Meyers,
Matt DeMarco was pre-
pared to add something
new to his repertoire on
Friday.
With Mohawks kicker
Cal Lisman abruptly side-
lined with a knee injury,
DeMarco was tabbed to
take over punting duties
if needed.
“I got a call about 8
o’clock last night and
heard I’ve got no kicker
and no punter,” Meyers
coach Corry Hanson said
with a laugh. “We went to
Plan B real quick.”
The Mohawks didn’t
need DeMarco to actu-
ally boot the ball, but
the senior quarterback
did everything else, rack-
ing up 203 yards of total
offense and four touch-
downs in Meyers’ 36-0
win at Nanticoke.
“Matt’s a tough kid,
he really is,” Hanson
said. “He’s resilient.
We bounced back after
a tough loss last week.
He handled the pressure
and he performed well
tonight.”
DeMarco lined up to
punt twice. The first time
he ripped off a 17-yard
gain on fourth-and-7 to
set up a touchdown late
in the second quarter.
He finished the day
with 135 yards and three
scores on the ground and
added 68 yards passing,
including a 45-yard touch-
down to a wide-open
Tyon Thomas just two
plays after the fake punt.
His first rushing score
covered 77 yards.
“DeMarco’s a great
athlete. Any team with
him has an advantage,”
Nanticoke coach Ron
Bruza said. “He basically
broke our backs tonight.”
Meyers (2-2) scored
two touchdowns in the
final 1:14 of the first half,
with the second one effec-
tively ending the Trojans’
hopes.
With time winding
down, T.J. Cistrunk
blasted quarterback
J.T. Levandowski on
third-and-long. Tyler
Smallcomb scooped
up the loose ball and
returned it 30 yards to
the Nanticoke 10 with
15.4 seconds left before
the break.
It took DeMarco two
plays to find the end zone,
beating the defense to the
corner off right tackle to
make it 28-0 at halftime.
“I told the defense
to just be aggressive,”
Hanson said. “Last week
I thought we were a little
passive, especially in the
second half when the
game was on the line.”
Meyers rebounded nice-
ly from back-to-back road
losses — a blowout at Old
Forge and a heartbreaker
at Lackawanna Trail. The
Mohawks defense held
Nanticoke (1-3) under
100 yards of offense and
just 18 in the second half.
Levandowski had 48
yards passing to lead the
Trojans. Nate Mahalak
(64 yards rushing) had
the Mohawks’ other
touchdown on the night.
Lineman Carlo Telesco
took over kickoff duties
for Meyers, sticking most-
ly to squib kicks. Meyers
didn’t attempt an extra
point, going for two after
all five touchdowns and
converting three times.

football action Friday
night.
Zukoski, a junior, car-
ried the ball 29 times for
the Cougars. He scored
on an 8-yard run in the
first quarter to open a 7-0
lead for Hazleton Area.
Zukoski also caught two
passes for another 29

George’s first 1-yard
plunge made it 17-0 mid-
way through the sec-
ond quarter. He added a
2-yard scoring run in the

tion.

TOM FOX
For The Times Leader
DUNMORE — Tyler
Lasher knew the ball was
coming his way. And the
Dunmore junior made
sure he got his hands up
to knock down the pass.
Lasher broke up Jake
Manetti’s last-second
throw in the end zone as
the Bucks held off Old
Forge twice at the 10-yard
line in the fourth quar-
ter for a 21-16 victory
between two state-ranked
Class A teams.
Dunmore (4-0) remains
undefeated while the Blue
Devils fall to 3-1.
“We are fortunate to get
out with a win,” Dunmore
head coach Jack Henzes
said. “We were able to
take advantage of some
of their mistakes, and we
capitalized on them. Their
quarterback is a great ath-
lete and he tried to make a
nice play at the end. Our
defense stepped up and
made a play. We are proud
of them.”
Old Forge, bit hard by
the turnover bug, gave
itself two incredible
opportunities in the final
quarter.
The first drive, which
started on its own 38,
advanced all the way to
a first-and-goal at the
Dunmore 10 – only to
see the Bucks stop three
straight runs and force a
Manetti incomplete pass
on fourth down.
Then, following a
Dunmore safety after the
ball was snapped over
quarterback Brandon
Kujawski’s head and land-
ed in the end zone, the
Blue Devils had one last
hope.
Old Forge (3-1) took
advantage of a short field
and drove to the Dunmore
10. Lasher batted down a
pass on first down and the
Bucks stopped the Devils
on two consecutive runs
to force the final fourth
down with 1:22 left.

delivered a strike to
Kyle Merth for the first
down. Mathis followed
it up with another strike
to the streaking Merth,
who scampered in for the
score.
“We faced some adver-
sity and guys stepped up,”
GAR coach Paul Wiedlich
Jr. said. “I proud of these
guys. They didn’t quit and
I think we really became a
football team tonight.”
The Rangers corralled
the ensuing onside kick,
and on fourth down
Northwest caused the

to secure the victory.
“We’ve been going into
this game for five years
now and haven’t beaten
them,” Mazonkey said.
“We wanted to beat this

and I thought we were more physi-
cal,” Berwick coach George Curry
said. “We played physical. They’re
big, but I thought we had a little
more quickness.”
That fact didn’t escape Valley
West coach Pat Keating.
“They out-physicaled us,”
Keating said. “That was the most
disappointing thing. The bottom
line is we didn’t make plays when
we needed to make plays. They
had a third-and-18, we drop eight
(into coverage) and we still let
them complete the pass.”
That third-and-18 play — a
20-yard pass from C.J. Curry to
Andrew Force — allowed Berwick
to keep a scoring drive alive in the
third quarter after Valley West had
tied the score 21-21.
Running back Nate Maczuga
capped the drive with a 30-yard
touchdown run, breaking through
tackles 20 yards fromthe end zone,
to give the Dawgs a 28-21 lead.
Berwick’s next two scores
came after Valley West turnovers.
Linebacker Zach Andress inter-
cepted a pass, leading to a 3-yard
TD run by Kowalski. A fumble
on a fourth-down attempt set up
Kowalski’s 30-yard score.
“It was aheckof agame,” George
Curry said. “Two good teams went
at it. We just rallied a little more.”
Momentumswung several times
in the first half, but it was fleeting
for both teams.
Valley West scored on its first
drive of the game on a 20-yard run
by Eric Acosta. Berwick rebound-
ed by scoring on its next two pos-
session for a 13-7.
The Spartans, though, answered
with a 12-play scoring drive
capped by a 20-yard scoring run
by Troy Yashinski. Again Berwick
answered with a 10-play drive that
Stout finished with an 8-yard TD
run. The Dawgs were aided by
a pass interference penalty on a
third-and-7 from the Valley West
19-yard line. Stout scored on the
next play.

LEHMAN TWP. — The
sign in front of the Lake-
Lehman student section
appropriately read “Lake-
Lehman Faithful”.
Somehow, the Black
Knight fans stood stand-
ing throughout all 83
points, 620 yards and
150 minutes of Lake-
Lehman’s 61-22 triumph
over Holy Redeemer in
its home opener.
“Overall, to have that
many points on the board
at the end of the first half,
you can’t complain about
that,” Lake-Lehman
coach Jerry Gilsky said. “I
mean really we could have
run the ball wherever we
wanted. It is what it is,
guys.”
Lake-Lehman held Holy
Redeemer to 14 rushing
yards on 24 carries. The
Black Knights sacked
quarterback Jimmy
Strickland five times for
25 yards.
“They took us out of
what we wanted to do
defensively,” Gilsky said.
“Guys are playing differ-
ent roles.”
Lake-Lehman pounced
Holy Redeemer early
and often, racking up 20
points within the games
first 10 minutes, thanks
to a terrific 103-yard,
two-touchdown first quar-
ter by running back Joey
Vigil. He broke out for 57
yards on a fourth down
play to give the Black
Knights a 20-0 lead with
2:27 left in the quarter.
Vigil finished the game
with 140 yards on only
six carries.
The Royals struggled
on offense in the early
going and failed to get
past their own 20-yard
line before the Black
Knights 20-point lead.
Charles Ross finally gave
the Royals some life when
he returned a kick 67
yards to the Lake-Lehman
9 yard line to set up an
Eric Kerr receiving touch-
down.
The second quarter was
dominated by the Black
Knights’ 27 points. The
quarter was highlighted
by two key defensive
plays. Pete Borum bat-
ted down a fourth down
red zone pass, and Josh
Winters returned an
interception 42 yards for
a touchdown.
Brady Butler and
Dustin Jones joined Vigil
with 100-plus yard rush-
ing games. Butler carried
the ball for 120 yards and
a touchdown, and Jones
ran nine times for 172
yards and two scores.

HANOVER TWP. —
Hanover Area gave the
ball away on muffed punts
twice early.
Wyoming Area took the
ball away on pass plays
later to hold on to its first
victory, taking advantage
of four turnovers to beat
the Hawkeyes, 20-12,
Friday night.
Ryan Murray recovered
a fumble to set up the first
touchdown, caught a pass
for the second score and
made an interception to
turn away a Hanover Area
threat.
The win helped the
defending District 2 Class
2A champion Warriors
bounce back from a 54-7
home-field loss to Lake-
Lehman that dropped
them to 0-3.
“It was tough, but we
do have a good team and
I knew we could do it,”
Murray said.
Farrad Condry caught a
pass for the first Wyoming
Area score and made an
interception with 1:31 left
and Hanover Area out of
timeouts.
A flag for apparent
Wyoming Area pass inter-
ference was thrown on
the Condry interception,
but after the officials con-
sulted about the play, they
ruled that there was no
penalty.
That decision brought
Hanover Area coach Ron
Hummer onto the field
yelling in anger when
the game ended with
Wyoming Area kneeling
down three times.
“The officials are terri-
ble, quote Ron Hummer,”
Hummer said while ask-
ing to be quoted about
the play to make his dis-
pleasure clear. “To make
that call, in a situation
like that …”
Hanover Area got itself
in trouble by muffing
punts twice in the first
7:15.
Ryan Gorki hit Condry
with a 10-yard pass and
Danielle Stillarty hit the
first of her two extra
points for a 7-0 lead with
8:07 left in the first quar-
ter.
The second fumble
resulted in a missed field
goal.
Wyoming Area gave up
a 50-yard pass play from
Jacob Peters to Elido
Veras, but held Hanover
Area to minus-20 yards on
its other plays while tak-
ing a 14-0 lead in the first

For the Times Leader
Aigeldinger and
Comets hang on
By PAUL SOKOLOSKI
[email protected]
HAWLEY — The
star running back for
Crestwood High School
didn’t need 300 yards or
long-distance touchdown
sprints to help his team
secure a victory this time.
Rather than his
explosive legs, Frank
Aigeldinger relied more
on his hands. Because
they helped Crestwood
hang onto victory.
Aigeldinger and
Michael Legg teamed up
to stop Wallenpaupack
three yards short of
the end zone — and
also shy of a first down
— Friday, sealing
Crestwood’s 27-19 vic-
tory over the Buckhorns
at Wallenpaupack High
School.
“Definitely defensive
play,” Aigeldinger said,
referring to his favorite
moment of the night.
“We scrapped it out, were
able to make the tackle. It
helped us beat them.”
Of course, Aigeldinger’s
three rushing touchdowns
didn’t hurt.
The hard-running tail-
back crossed the goal line
on bursts of 3, 5 and 3
yards to produce three of
Crestwood’s four scores.
That didn’t match
Aigeldinger’s eye-pop-
ping career-high day of
323 rushing yards and
four touchdowns against
Pittston Area last week,
but his workman-like
performance Friday was
every bit as meaningful to
the Comets.
“A lot of people see
his numbers on offense,
what he did last week,”
Crestwood coach Greg
Myers said. “Tonight, I
don’t think he had crazy
numbers. But he did score
three touchdowns. Most
importantly, he stepped
up on defense and made a
great play at the end.”
For the record,
Aigeldinger finished with
88 yards on 16 carries.
“Doesn’t matter to me,”
Aigeldinger said. “All that
matters is we get the win
at the end of the day.”
Aigeldinger made sure
the Comets secured it.
With little more
than a minute to play,
Wallenpaupack faced
a fourth-and-3 from
Crestwood’s 4-yard line
while driving toward
a potential score and
conversion that would
have tied the game. The
Buckhorns gave the ball
to their star running back
Jovaughn Marshall, who
finished with 181 rushing
yards on the night.
But Aigeldinger dove in
from his linebacker spot
to make a low tackle, and
Legg finished the play
off from up top to thwart
Wallenpaupack’s hopes of
catching Crestwood.
“We knew it was going
to be a fistfight,” Myers
said. “I thought we
answered the bell.”

“We knew it was
going to be a fist-
fight. I thought we
answered the bell.”
Greg Myers
Crestwood coach
“They out-physicaled us.
That was the most disap-
pointing thing. The bottom
line is we didn’t make plays
when we needed to make
plays. They had a third-
and-18, we drop eight (into
coverage) and we still let
themcomplete the pass.”

PITTSBURGH — Joey Votto homered
off Kyle Farnsworth in the 10th inning and
the Cincinnati Reds edged Pittsburgh 6-5
Friday night to pull even with the Pirates
for the top wild-card spot in the National
League.
Cincinnati pushed across three unearned
runs in the ninth off Pittsburgh closer Mark
Melancon to tie it and Votto won it an
inning later when his fly to left field reached
the first row of seats for his 24th homer of
the season.
JJ Hoover (5-5) earned the win for the
Reds, who have won four straight. Aroldis
Chapman worked the 10th for his 38th save.
Farnsworth (1-1) retiredBrandonPhillips
to start the 10th but left fielder Starling
Marte couldn’t quite grab Votto’s shot down
the line and the Reds started a pivotal three-
game series with a stunning victory.
mets 6, phillies 4
PHILADELPHIA — David Wright
homered in his return to the Mets lineup,
Daniel Murphy had three hits and Daisuke
Matsuzaka earned his second straight victo-
ry in New York’s win over the Philadelphia
Phillies.
Eric Young Jr. singled, doubled and drove
in a run for the Mets, who have won four
of seven.
Darin Ruf doubled and drove in a pair of
runs for Philadelphia, which has lost four of
seven.
LaTroy Hawkins pitched a scoreless
ninth for his 11th save in 14 opportunities.
Hawkins got some help when a retreating
Juan Lagares made a leaping, one-handed
catch in front of the wall in center to rob Ruf
of extra bases leading off the frame.
The Mets jumped on Cole Hamels (8-14)
for three runs in the first.
Matsuzaka (2-3) pitched six innings,
allowing four runs on four hits with six
strikeouts and three walks.
Braves 9, cubs 5
CHICAGO — Chris Johnson went 3 for
4 with a home run, and the Atlanta Braves
beat the Chicago Cubs to reduce their magic
number to clinch the NL East to one.
The Braves broke open a tie game in the
top of the ninth inning with four runs — all
with two outs.
Brian McCann and Johnson each had an
RBI single, and Andrelton Simmons fol-
lowed with a two-run double.
Nationals 8, marlins 0
WASHINGTON — Jordan Zimmermann
pitched a two-hitter and picked up his
NL-leading 19th win Friday night, leading
the barely-still-alive Washington Nationals
to a victory over the Miami Marlins.
Zimmermann (19-8) took a no-hitter into
the sixth inning, struck out nine and faced
only three batters above the minimum. He
passed the 200-inning mark for the sea-
son and lowered his ERA to 3.18 for the
Nationals, who have essentially hit must-
win mode in their late push for the playoffs.
They began the day trailing the Cincinnati
Reds by five games with nine to play for the
NL’s second wild card berth.
Zimmermann had a one-hitter this sea-
son, on April 26 in a 1-0 win over the Reds.

BOSTON — The Boston Red Sox
clinched the AL East title on Friday night,
getting seven strong innings from Jon
Lester to beat the Toronto Blue Jays 6-3
and eliminate Tampa Bay from the division
race.
One night after securingtheir first playoff
appearance since 2009, the Red Sox added
their first division title since ‘07. Boston
entered the night with a magic number of
one — meaning the next Red Sox win or
Rays loss would clinch the division.
Lester (15-8) allowed one run on five
hits and two walks, striking out eight to
win for the seventh time in nine decisions.
It was his 100th career victory.
Toronto pinch-hitter Adam Lind hit a
two-run homer off Junichi Tazawa in the
eighth to make it 5-3 before Koji Uehara
got five outs for his 20th save. With the
crowd standing for most of the final inning,
he struck out Brett Lawrie to end the game
and the Red Sox poured out of the dugout
and bullpen.
Dustin Pedroia had three hits for the Red
Sox, who have won 19 of their last 25.
Toronto starter Esmil Rogers (5-8) did
not make it out of the third inning, allowing
two runs on three hits and five walks and
striking out two while getting only seven
outs.
tigers 12, White Sox 5
DETROIT — Max Scherzer became
baseball’s first 20-game winner, pitching
through a rainy six innings to help Detroit
defeat Chicago. Scherzer (20-3) was mak-
ing his fifth attempt to win No. 20. He had
two losses and two no-decisions in his pre-
vious four starts. Torii Hunter had four hits
for Detroit, and Victor Martinez homered.
Dylan Axelrod (4-10) allowed seven runs
in 2 2-3 innings.
The AL Central-leading Tigers lowered
their magic number to eliminate second-
place Cleveland to three.
indians 2, astros 1, 6 1-2 innings
CLEVELAND — Zach McAllister last-
ed five innings and the Cleveland Indians
got two gift runs from Houston in a 2-1,
rain-shortened victory over the Astros on
Friday night to remain near the top of the
AL wild-card standings.
The game was delayed for 1 hour, 9 min-
utes before the umpires decided to call it
after 6 1-2 innings.
The Indians, who entered the night trail-
ing both Tampa Bay and Texas by one-
half game for a wild-card spot, scored an
unearned run in the second and fourth
innings off Brett Oberholtzer (4-4).
McAllister (9-9) allowed just one run
and got a key double play in the fifth. Bryan
Shaw went 1 1-3 innings for his first save.

Yankees 5, giants 1
NEW YORK — Alex Rodriguez set a
major league record with his 24th career
grand slam, passing Lou Gehrig with a
tiebreaking shot in the seventh inning that
sent New York Yankees to victory over
San Francisco. Rodriguez’s slam helped
CC Sabathia (14-13) beat Tim Lincecum
in a matchup of former Cy Young Award-
winners having subpar seasons.
More importantly for the Yankees, it led
them to their second win in seven games as
they cling to faint playoff hopes. New York
began the day 3½games behind Tampa Bay
and Texas for the second ALwild card, with
three other teams in between.
Alfonso Soriano also homered and New
York opened its final homestand of the sea-
son with a much-needed victory, hours after
pitcher Andy Pettitte announced his plans
to retire — again — following this season.

Yankees’ Pettitte to retire afer season
The Associated Press
NEW YORK — Andy Pettitte had
no interest in a farewell tour or some
big pronouncement regarding his
(second) retirement. Anything more
than a conference call the day after
the season would only feel embarrass-
ing.
“Because I’ve done this before,”
said a sheepish Pettitte, who briefly
stepped away from baseball two years
ago. “I feel awkward doing this right
now, to tell you the truth.”
Still, the New York Yankees pitcher
was having a hard time telling people
he wasn’t sure if he would be back
next season when he already knew
this was it. And he wanted to thank
fans for all their support, something
he wished he had a chance to do the
first time.
So after discussing it with several
close friends — including Mariano
Rivera over lunch in Toronto —
Pettitte chose to formally announce
his decision at a Yankee Stadium
news conference Friday.
“I’m ready to be home again,”
Pettitte said. “But the biggest thing
is, I’m just done.”
In a statement released Friday after-
noon, hours before the Yankees began
their final homestand, the 41-year-old
Pettitte said he has reached the point
where he knows he has left everything
he has on the field.
The left-hander initially retired
after the 2010 season, but sat out
only one year before returning to the
Yankees.
This time, he means it.
“The time is right. I’ve exhausted
myself, mentally and physically, and
that’s exactly how I want to leave this
game,” he said.

But the end result defi-
nitely knocked them
down a peg.
“You’ve got to hate los-
ing more than you want to
win,” Carson said. “And
that loss was humbling to
us. I don’t think anyone
wants to feel that again.”
Fortunately for the
Lions, they go from facing
an NFL hopeful at quar-
terback in UCF’s Blake
Bortles to a raw redshirt
freshman in Kent State’s
Colin Reardon. The
Flashes are also likely to
be without All-American
Dri Archer, who has bat-
tled an ankle injury since
the opener.
Reardon has four
touchdowns and no inter-
ceptions through three
games, but the Flashes
have largely played it safe
with the young signal-
caller, sticking mostly to
short passes.
Teams have done that a
lot against the Lions in the
early going, getting rid of
the ball quickly to try and
neutralize top pass-rusher
Deion Barnes.
It’s worked. Barnes
has been held without a
sack or a tackle for loss
through the first three
games.
“I think you have to
look at the film closely
on that, because I think
he’s playing with great
effort,” Penn State coach
Bill O’Brien said. “He’s an
excellent player. I believe
people are running away
from him and I think that
people are giving the
tackles help in protection
with him. I would, too.
“We’ve got to do things
to move him around and
help him out a little bit.
We will and we have. But
Deion, to me, is playing
well. I’m glad he’s on our
team, I can tell you that.”
Finding ways to spark
the pass rush would go
a long way to getting the
defense back on track.
The Lions didn’t man-
age any sacks against the
Knights, and Penn State
had trouble getting off the
field on third downs as a
result.
Third downs remain a
concern for the offense
as well. Penn State con-
verted two third downs
against UCF, doubling
their season total. The
Lions moved up one spot
in the national rankings in
the category, now sitting
122nd out of 123 teams.
O’Brien acknowledged
that it’s a problem, but
the Lions boss hasn’t
been too concerned about
it because he’s more inter-
ested in the final result —
the offense is averaging
33 points per game.
More than anything,
O’Brien is pleased with
his team’s attitude.
“What I’ve learned from
these kids is that they’re
resilient,” O’Brien said.
“They come into the
office on Sunday on their
own. That’s their day off.
They’re watching film,
getting treatment, and are
ready to go on Monday.
“Those are good things.
You can really see where
you need to improve.
Hopefully that’s what we
do. Hopefully we learn
from it and we move on
and we do the best we can
to get a win this week.”

— Whether he’s in the
pocket or on the move,
Michael Vick keeps tak-
ing hits.
Vick limped off the
field after injuring his
ankles on his final play in
the Philadelphia Eagles’
26-16 loss to Kansas City
Thursday night, but he
would’ve returned if the
game hadn’t ended.
He may not be so lucky
next time.
Vick has taken plenty
of shots in the first three
games, an ominous sign
for a quarterback who has
missed 13 games because
of injuries over the past
three years.
The combination of
pressure from the defense
and his poor decisions
resulted in a mistake-
filled performance for
Vick against the Chiefs.
Vick was 13 of 30 for
201 yards, one touch-
down and threw his first
two interceptions of the
season, including a pick
that was returned for a
score. He was coming off a
career-best 428-yard pass-
ing day against San Diego
and had a 119 passer rat-
ing through two weeks.
“I thought Mike played
OK,” coach Chip Kelly
said Friday. “He has
played better. But it’s
always a combination
unfortunately. It’s a team
game. It’s not always on
one guy. We got a couple
balls tipped. (Linemen
have) got to get some
guys’ hands down. We’ve
got to be able to stand
in the pocket at times —
when we’ve got a situa-
tion where we got to be
able to get to the top of
our drop — and not give
up so much pressure.
“There are times for
Mike when the ball has to
get out a little bit quicker
in certain situations.”
Vick ran for 95 yards
against the Chiefs, includ-
ing a career-long 61-yard
scramble that set up his
scoring pass. But he
misfired repeatedly, was
sacked five times and hur-
ried too often to count.
The Eagles (1-2) have
lost two in a row after
an impressive win at
Washington in their
opener. Next up is a trip
to Denver to face Peyton
Manning and Co.
“We gave up too much
pressure,” Kelly said. “A
lot of times they’re just
rushing four and they’re
getting to the quarter-
back extremely quickly.
You know, we’re not even
getting to the top of our
drop and we’re getting
too much pressure on
them. We can’t put Mike
Hits keep on coming

SOUTH BEND, Ind. —
Notre Dame is still missing
graduated linebacker Manti
Te’o a quarter of the way
through this season.
Without the charismatic
leader who made those
around him better, the once
dominating Fighting Irish
defense is meandering even
with eight returning start-
ers. The defense has given
up one fewer point through
three games (71) than it
did through eight games
(72) last season.
he Irish defense, which
allowed only nine offensive
touchdowns all last regular
season, already has given
up eight this year.
“Our guys were like hunt-
ing dogs last year. In other
words, when it was time
to go, we knew what to
expect,” coach Brian Kelly
said.
“We’re not there yet, but
I’m getting a better feel
for our football team each
and every week. I’d like to
be there right now, but the
problem is our first four
weeks don’t allow us time
to grow up.”
While the 22nd-ranked
Irish (2-1) opened the
season against Temple
and then split games with
Michigan and Purdue, the
Spartans (3-0) opened the
season with wins against
Western Michigan, South
Florida and Youngstown
State. Michigan State
coach Mark Dantonio said
he expects to learn more
about his team today.
“You are going to find out
how they handle adversity,
how they play away, look
for matchups here, how do
they play in crunch time
in a close game, which we
really haven’t had that yet,”
he said.
The Spartans this season
have looked more like the
Irish of last season than
Notre Dame has, depend-
ing on the nation’s No.
1 defense to win games.
Defensive end Shilique
Calhoun has led the charge
with three touchdowns on
a pair of fumble recoveries
and an interception return
as the defense scored four
of the Spartans’ first six
touchdowns.
But Irish linebacker
Prince Shembo believes the
Irish defense is still capable
of playing like it did last
season.
“It’s just lack of execu-
tion. We’ve just got to work
at our assignments and get
better at it,” he said.
The Irish defensive line,
which has not been as
productive as last season,
could be further hampered
by an ankle sprain defen-
sive end Sheldon Day sus-
tained against Purdue.
Day practiced Thursday
after missing the first two
days of practice this week,
but Kelly said he will be a
game-time decision.
Kelly admits the Irish
are still searching for
their identity, but believes
quarterback Tommy Rees
showed leadership against
Purdue in the second half
that should help with that.
With three players sharing
the two inside lineback-
er spots and a first-time
starter at safety in Austin
Collinsworth, Kelly is look-
ing for people to help fill
the leadership void left by
the departures of Te’o and
Zeke Motta.
“Those are two positions
we’re still in flux a little bit
with,” Kelly said.
“We’ve got leaders; we
just haven’t got that posi-
tion nailed down yet. I
think once we do, we’ll have
the leadership we need.”
Irish set for Sparty, but still seek an identity
Notre Dame’s defense
has failed to live up to last
season’s stellar unit.

Pitt plays
frst ACC
road game
DURHAM, N.C. — Duke
wants to give Pittsburgh a
warm welcome to life on the
road in the Atlantic Coast
Conference.
The Panthers make their
first road trip in the ACC
today when they visit a Blue
Devils team looking to get
past a discouraging loss to
Georgia Tech.
Duke (2-1, 0-1) squandered
much of the momentum of its
first 2-0 start since 1998 with
its 24-point loss to the Yellow
Jackets.
“It wasn’t any individual or
any one thing. … It doesn’t
catch up with you until it
catches up with you,” Duke
coach David Cutcliffe said.
“We’re putting a premium on
how well we execute on both
sides of the ball.”
Neither team can afford to
fall to 0-2 in league play and
essentially have its Coastal
Division chances evaporate
just four weeks into the sea-
son.
Pitt (1-1, 0-1) bounced back
from its lopsided opening loss
to No. 8 Florida State by beat-
ing New Mexico 49-27. Now
comes the Panthers’ first test
away from Heinz Field.
“You just embrace it and
they have to go play some-
where different,” coach Paul
Chryst said. “It’s going to be
a new locker room. We have
to just jump in.” Five things to
know about Pitt’s first visit to
Duke since 1976:
PITT’S KIDS: Pitt seems
to be going all-in with some of
its freshmen. Freshmen scored
37 of its 49 points last week
against New Mexico, includ-
ing two touchdowns apiece
from WR Tyler Boyd and RB
James Conner.
CONNETTE CANNOT
STRESS: Brandon Connette
is making just his second start
as a full-time quarterback and
the Blue Devils insist he can’t
allow himself to shoulder too
much of the burden for the
team’s performance.
GEORGIA WHO?: Duke
is happy to forget all about
Georgia Tech and its pesky
triple option. The Blue Devils’
defense seems eager to get
back to dealing with an oppo-
nent that plays a more com-
mon style — like Pitt, a clas-
sic power-football team with a
bulky offensive line and a pair
of gifted receivers.
PITT’S WRS: Pitt boasts
one of the top receiving tan-
dems in the ACC in Boyd and
Devin Street, and that means a
test for Duke CB Ross Cockrell
and a secondary that last week
allowed four touchdown pass-
es to run-first Georgia Tech.
HISTORY LESSON: These
two schools do have a few ties.
They met in the first game at
Wallace Wade Stadium on Oct.
5, 1929, prompting Cutcliffe
to quip that “they played that
game and the stock market
crashed.” In between his two
stints as Pitt’s coach, Johnny
Majors hired Cutcliffe as an
assistant at Tennessee. And
Duke assistants Kurt and Zac
Roper are the sons of former
Pitt assistant Bob Roper.
Blue Devils ready to make
Panthers’ visit rough.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. — It seems like a
perfect time to catch Alabama off-guard.
The top-ranked Crimson Tide sweated
out a winina much-hypedgame withNo. 10
Texas A&M. NowheavyunderdogColorado
State (1-2) comes to town Saturday night,
with No. 21 Mississippi awaiting for another
Southeastern Conference showdown.
“It’s going to be a big week for us to not
havealetdownweekafter abigwin, sowe’ve
tocome out andhandle business,” Tide quar-
terback AJ McCarron said.
Rams coach Jim McElwain knows
firsthand that scenario doesn’t guarantee
Alabama (2-0) will try to sleepwalk through
the follow-up game even against a 39-1/2-
point underdog. In fact, he thinks it’s highly
unlikely.
“Oneof thethings I knowfrombeingthere
is that there is no letdown,” said McElwain,
who was the Tide’s offensive coordinator
from 2008-11. “People could point out that
they just had that huge win over a nationally-
ranked team. One of the things that they do
as well as anybody in the country does is
that it doesn’t matter who you’re playing, it’s
about playing against yourself.
“It’s about howyou do every single day, in
every single snap to get better.”
Besides, fewwins on such a big stage pro-
vided more defensive teaching points than
that one for Alabama. The Aggies’ 628 yards
was the most ever against a Tide defense.
Saban said games like that 49-42 shootout
“take years off your life as a coach.” They
aren’t much kinder to Saban-coached defen-
sive backs.
He said he gave some younger DBs a shot
at earning more playing time this week. A
unit vying to become the first to lead the
nation in scoring defense three years run-
ning has a little extra motivation, too.
“I think they have a lot of pride in their
performance and certainly are trying to get
better and play better,” Saban said.
It’s the Tide’s home opener after a neutral-
site romp over Virginia Tech, an open date
and a visit to Texas A&M.
Alabama has won 20 in a row over non-
conference opponents and outscored such
teams by an average of 27 points under
Saban, while going 27-3.
Five things to watch when Colorado State
plays No. 1 Alabama on Saturday:
ALABAMA’S DEFENSE: The task gets
much easier for the Tide a week after giving
up all those yards to Johnny Manziel and
Texas A&M. Colorado State ranks 85th in
total offense, averaging 367.7 yards and 29.3
points per game.
INTIMIDATION FACTOR: Colorado
State has only faced one No. 1 team, the
2004 Southern California group led by stars
Matt Leinart, Reggie Bush and LenDale
White.
TIDE BACKUPS: If the game goes as
expected, this will be a chance for Alabama
to get some youngsters in the game, maybe
including freshman tailbacks Derrick Henry
and Altee Tenpenny and a few defensive
backs.
INJURIES: Cornerback Deion Belue and
receiver Kevin Norwood are questionable
while nursing injuries.
SUNSERI’S SHOT: Safety Vinnie
Sunseri has returnedinterceptions for touch-
downs in each of Alabama’s first two games
andgot lotsof attentionforputtingamoveon
the HeismanTrophywinner Manziel against
the Aggies. Antonio Langham became the
only Tide defender to score non-offensive
touchdowns in three straight games in 1992,
and nobody has done it since.
Alabama aims to avoid letdown

Huskies brace for angry Wolverine squad
RALPH D. RUSSO
AP College Football Writer
Connecticut and its fans
have been looking forward
to Michigan playing on their
home turf for several years.
Now that the 15th-ranked
Wolverines trip to Rentschler
Field is here, the Huskies
don’t seem to be up for the
challenge.
UConn is trying to avoid
its first 0-3 start since 2001
when it plays Michigan (3-0)
today. The Huskies rank
103rd in the nation in total
offense and have already lost
at home to Maryland and
Towson, an FCS school.
Then again the Wolverines
are coming off a close
call against lowly Akron.
Michigan needed a last-sec-
ondgoal linestandwin28-24.
“It’s just another pro-
gram,” UConn defensive
back Ty-Meer Brown said. “I
keep telling the guys, it’s just
another program. They have
that, but they don’t have an
“S” on their chest.”
The sloppy performance
against Akron led to a rare
practice in pads on Sunday
for Michigan. “I was mad
Saturday and I’m still mad
now,” MichiganAll-American
tackle Taylor Lewan said this
week, “but if this team does
what it’s supposed to do this
could be a good thing, if we
learn from it and prepare
hard and never let this hap-
pen again.”
Huskies fans have been
grumpy lately, too.
UConn has had two
straight losing seasons under
Paul Pasqualoni and two
losses to start this season
already have athletic director
Warde Manuel, who played
defensive tackle for Michigan
in the last 1980s, answering
questions about the coach’s
job security.
Five things to know about
Michigan-UConn:
EXPECTING EXTRA
GUESTS: Michigan is the
most notable team to play
at Rentschler Field, built in
2003 with the help of the
state of Connecticut in East
Hartford. To accommodate
what school officials expected
to be extra demand for tick-
ets, 2,300 temporary seats
were added, raising capacity
to about 42,000.
UCONN CAN’T RUN:
The Huskies rank 122nd out
of 123 full-fledged FBS teams
in rushing at 59 yards per
game.
M I C H I G A N ’ S
RUNNING GAME IS A
PROBLEM, TOO. The
numbers look OK, 195 yards
per game, but the Wolverines
haven’t gotten much from
tailback Fitzgerald Toussaint,
who is averaging 3.6 yards
per carry. Might Michigan
use blue chip freshman
Derrick Green more?
GARDNER GROWING
UP: As good as Devin
Gardner was as against Notre
Dame two weeks ago, he was
that bad last week against
Akron. The junior threw
three interceptions and lost
oneof his twofumbles. Coach
Brady Hoke said staying out
of third-and-long should help
his quarterback.
NO BACKSIES. The
deal for this home-and-home
(Michigan won 30-10 in
Ann Arbor in 2010) was put
together by the previous ADs
for each school.
Michigan athletic director
David Brandon tried to con-
vince Manuel to move the
game to MetLife Stadium in
New Jersey, home of the Jets
and Giants.
wwUConn wouldn’t and
couldn’t budge, and Brandon
said buying out the game for
$2 million was not the right
thing to do. Rentschler Field
has the smallest capacity
for a stadium that Michigan
has played in since the
Wolverines visited Boston
College in 1991.

Buckeyes nearly
at full strength
COLUMBUS, Ohio — There is
almost no one — except for maybe
a deluded fan somewhere — who
believes Florida A&M has a remote
chance against fourth-ranked Ohio
State on Saturday.
With a Big Ten opener a week later
against rival Wisconsin, the Buckeyes
will use the Rattlers as a full-dress
scrimmage to iron out the final wrin-
kles before embarking on the games
that really count.
Coach Urban Meyer expected his
players to be complacent this week,
and was prepared to have his assistants
jump down their throats to get them to
focus. But that wasn’t necessary. The
Buckeyes have been efficient and busi-
nesslike all week.
The big news around Ohio State isn’t
who the opponent is but rather who’ll
be back on the field: tailback Carlos
Hyde and quarterback Braxton Miller.
Badgers look to
run past Purdue
MADISON, Wis. — Wisconsin is
ready to take off in the Big Ten.
Sophomore Melvin Gordon leads a
stable of running backs for the 24th-
ranked Badgers (2-1) in the conference
opener against Purdue (1-2) at Camp
Randall Stadium.
Gordon’s 159 yards rushing per game
trails only Rutgers’ Paul James among
Football Bowl Subdivision schools. He
ran for an 80-yard touchdown on his
signature sweep play during last week’s
crushing 32-30 loss at Arizona State.
Boilermakers coach Darrell Hazell
says his team will try to stop the
run and make the Badgers as one-
dimensional as possible. He’s also
hoping to build on the promising play
that emerged in Purdue’s 31-24 loss
last week to Notre Dame. Purdue is
trying to snap a seven-game skid to
Wisconsin dating back to 2004.
Call not so clear
against Wolfpack
GREENSBORO, N.C. — The
Atlantic Coast Conference’s coordi-
nator of officials says it isn’t clear
whether a North Carolina State player
stepped out of bounds during a critical
play in a loss to No. 3 Clemson.
Doug Rhoads issued a statement
Friday, one day after Clemson beat the
Wolfpack 26-14.
Momentum swung on Bryan
Underwood’s long sideline run for an
apparent touchdown. An official blew
the play dead, ruling he stepped out at
the Clemson 47. That prompted pro-
longed booing from the crowd.
N.C. State fumbled three plays later
and Clemson followed with a touch-
down to go up 20-7.
Rhoads says his office viewed “all
available angles” numerous times
and says some images seem to show
Underwood didn’t step out while
another indicated he did. Rhoads
says it “cannot be resolved beyond all
doubt.”
Foster says he
took money at UT
KNOXVILLE, Tenn. — Houston
Texans running back Arian Foster
says in an upcoming documentary
he accepted money his senior year at
Tennessee.
“Honestly, I don’t know if this will
throw us into an NCAA investiga-
tion, but my senior year I was getting
money on the side,” Foster says in the
EPIX documentary. “I really didn’t
have any money. I had to either pay
the rent or buy some food. I remember
the feeling, like, ‘Man, be careful,’ but
there’s nothing wrong with it. You’re
not going to convince me that there is
something wrong with it.”
Sports Illustrated first reported
Foster’s comments in the documen-
tary, “Schooled: The Price of College
Sports.”

SANFRANCISCO—The
lightest windof the America’s
Cup led to one crazy day on
foggy San Francisco Bay.
When the boats came back
to shore Friday afternoon,
Jimmy Spithill and his Oracle
Team USA teammates were
smiling and slapping each
other on the back after keep-
ing the America’s Cup in
America for at least one more
day.
Dean Barker and his mates
on Emirates Team New
Zealand could only shake
their heads at how close
they’d come to wresting the
oldest trophy in international
sports from the American
powerhouse.
Spithill and Oracle Team
USA stayed alive for the sec-
ondstraight day, pullingaway
from the Kiwis to win the re-
sail of Race 13 by 1 minute,
24 seconds.
Oracle’s victory came an
hour after light, shifty wind
thwarted the Kiwis’ chances
to wrest the Auld Mug from
software billionaire Larry
Ellison.
The first attempt at Race
13 was abandoned because of
a time limit withthe Kiwis far
ahead.
Team New Zealand, which
reached match point on
Wednesday, leads 8-3.
Oracle has won five races
but was penalized two points
by an international jury in the
biggest cheating scandal in
the Cup’s 162-year history.
Oracle Team USA, owned
by Oracle Corp. boss Ellison,
has won four of the last six
races. It needs six more wins
to complete a miracle come-
back.
Earlier Friday, organizers
had to abandon or postpone
a race for the sixth time since
Saturday. The previous five
were because of wind over
the safety limit. That was
imposed after British sailor
Andrew“Bart”
Simpson was killed in the
capsize of Artemis Racing’s
catamaran during a training
run May 9.
Team New Zealand was
slogging along on the upwind
fourth leg when the 40-min-
ute limit was reached. The
Kiwis had a lead of a mile at
one point on the fourth leg.
It was a bizarre scene as
the high-performance cata-
marans limped between the
Golden Gate Bridge and
Alcatraz Island in only 9
knots of wind.
Previously, the cats had
hit speeds of 50 mph while
skimming across the tops of
the waves on hydrofoils, with
their hulls completely out of
the water.

There’s no question that
Misericordia is improving.
Just look at the numbers
from last year’s inaugural
season and compare themto
this year’s. The differences
are what seems like a million
times better than the 2012
season.
The Cougars have played
two of the toughest teams
they will face this season and
while both were losses, they
gave Gettysburg and No.
21-ranked Delaware Valley
fits.
Today at 1 p.m. when the
Cougars (0-2, 0-1 MAC)
take a bus ride on Route
118 to Williamsport to face
Lycoming in their first road
game of the season, they will
face another test in looking
for that elusive first victory
in school history.
The Warriors (1-1, 1-0)
are coming off a victory
against Wilkes a week after
scoring just two points in a
loss to Brockport. They had
the third-best total defense
in the country last season
and were 14th in scoring
defense. Lycoming’s defense
isn’t that impressive yet in
2013, but has allowed just
three points in the first half
in each of its first two games.
Another glaring stat by
the Warriors run defense is
that just two times in the last
three seasons has an oppos-
ing running back gone over
100 yards. And both times it
was by the same Brockport
back.
Misericordia pres-
ents another challenge to
Warriors.
Quarterback Jeff Puckett
leads the MAC in rushing
yards with460andsixtouch-
downs in just two games
as the no-huddle, option
offense has been rolling. The
Cougars have also been rack-
ing up the plays and yardage.
In two games, they have
run 185 plays for 1,076
yards, an average of 5.8
yards per play, and 57 points.
In 2012 after the first two
weeks, Misericordia posted
just 127 plays for 397 yards
and scored just seven points.
Now, it’s just a matter of
putting up those numbers
against one of the top defens-
es in the country.
Misericordia (0-2, 0-1
MAC) at Lycoming (1-1,
1-0)
When: 1 p.m. today
at David Person Field,
Williamsport
Last Week: The Cougars
are coming off a 42-17 loss
to Delaware Valley, while
Lycoming defeated Wilkes
34-18.
Last meeting:The only
matchup between the
schools was a 38-0 victory
for the Warriors at the end of
last season.
Misericordia player to
watch: Quarterback Jeff
Puckett, who leads the MAC
in rushing and scoring with
460 yards on the ground and
six TDs.
Lycoming player to
watch: Middle linebacker
Kabongo Bukasa, who is the
reigning MAC Defensive
Player of the Year, missed
the Warriors’ first game of
the season. He returned last

An early-season bye
week can be good or
bad.
It can give a team
some rest after a physi-
cal game and could
give a team more time
to work on things that
didn’t go as planned in
the opener.
King’s coach Jeff
Knarr is hoping the
week off after a close
loss to William Paterson
in Week 1 is just what
his team needed to get
going as the Monarchs
face Lebanon Valley this
afternoon at 1.
“Whenever (the bye)
is, you make the most
of it and go from there,”
Knarr said. “The posi-
tive for us is they say
you make the most
improvement from game
one to game two, so
we’ve had some extra
practice time to make
that come true.”
If getting better after
the first game occurs for
the Monarchs, they will
be looking at their first
victory.
Against William
Paterson, King’s did a
lot of things very well.
If not for a few mis-
takes, he team would’ve
earned a win two weeks
ago.
The offense was bal-
anced with 35 rushes
and 26 passes. The pass-
ing yards outnumbered
the yards on the ground
by more than 100, but
that’s not too far from
the norm.
“We did leave some
things on the field,”
Knarr said. “We
could’ve handled protec-
tion a little better. Clean
up our technique. It was
good balance, but now
we have to be consistent
and not miss opportu-
nities when they’re out
there.”
Defensively, the
Monarchs will be going
against a run-heavy
Lebanon Valley offense,
which uses the run to
open up the throwing
game.
The Dutchmen have
used four runners in
the backfield at times
and quarterback Brian
Murphy is also a threat
to take off instead of
throw.
“We have to match
their physicality so
we’re off the ball and
the guys in the second-
ary can’t get caught up
in stopping run, stop-
ping run, stopping run
and then boom they’re
behind us,” Knarr
added.
King’s (0-1, 0-0) at
Lebanon Valley (1-1,
0-1)
When: 1 p.m. today at
Arnold Field, Annville
Last Week: The
Monarchs are com-
ing off a bye week. In
Week 1, they lost to
William Paterson 21-19.
Lebanon Valley fell to
Widener 35-28.
Last meeting: In
2012, the Dutchmen
won 34-19. King’s hasn’t
beaten Lebanon Valley
since 2006 and hasn’t
won in Annville since
2005.
King’s players to
watch: The King’s
defensive front was
outstanding against
William Paterson, allow-
ing just 54 rushing
yards and picking up
five sacks.
Lebanon Valley play-
ers to watch: Receivers
Jake Ziegler and Joey
Miller were lauded as
All-MAC last season as
honorable mention and
second-team, respec-
tively. This season
they’ve combined for
16 receptions for 239
yards.
Monarchs’ team
leaders: RB Kyle
McGrath 94 yards, TD;
QB Tyler Hartranft
213 yards, TD; WR
Dan Kempa 5 rec, 105
yards; LB Nick Kaijala
10 tackles; LB Chad
Curtice 2 sacks; DL
Pete Santorelli 1 int.
Dutchmen’s team
leaders: RB Evan Fink
58 yards, TD; QB Brian
Murphy 350 yards, 3TD,
1int; WR Joey Miller 6
rec, 121 yards, TD; DB
Brian Kasper 20 tack-
les; DB Ryan Melley 1
int; LB Frank Gaffney 2
sacks.
King’s will win if:
Quarterback Tyler
Hartranft can pick apart
the Lebanon Valley sec-
ondary like Widener did
last week when it piled
up nearly 400 yards
through the air.
Lebanon Valley will
win if: The four run-
ning backs — Evan
Fink, Matt Richmond,
Brendan Irving and
Austin Hartman — get
through the Monarchs’
front and into open
fields to break open big
runs.
What to know:
Lebanon Valley kicker
Sean Fakete is closing
in on 100 career extra
points. He currently
has 96. If he reaches the
century mark, he will be
the first in school his-
tory to do so.

The worst loss in school history is
not talked about by Wilkes anymore.
That 90-0 embarrassment at the
hands of Widener was a year ago this
weekend. But all it is now for the team
is an afterthought when the teams
meet on Saturday at 1 p.m. at Schmidt
Stadium for the first time since then.
To make sure his team isn’t looking
back, Colonels coach Frank Sheptock
met with team leaders and captain
earlier in the week and told them that
if they think about that loss, it’s not
going to be good this time around.
“Last year’s game has nothing to do
with this year’s game,” Sheptock said.
“Is it going to be in our kids’ minds?
Sure I think it is. I think it’ll be in
their kids’ minds too. I think that’s
human nature. But for us, it’s been
very focused on ‘these are the things
we need to get better at this week.’”
The Pride have revamped since
last year when they reached the
quarterfinals of the NCAA Division
III Tournament. Coach Isaac Collins
has taken a Division II job at Seton
Hill, while quarterback Chris Haupt
has graduated. Bobby Acosta, former
offensive coordinator at The College
of New Jersey, took over for Collins,
while freshman quarterback Seth
Klein is in Haupt’s old slot.
But Widener still has the speedy
receivers that ran all over the Colonels
a year ago and Acosta has implement-
ed an up-tempo offense. Anthony
Davis had 113 yards receiving last
year, while Jermaine Quattlebaum
also had two receptions. Those two
are now first and third in the MAC
in receiving yards, while teammate
Adam Marcucci is fifth.
There’s a flip side to every story.
And this time that it Widener’s pass
defense, which is allowing an aver-
age of 400.5 yards per game and has
not registered an interception yet this
season.
Wilkes, which normally is a run-
heavy squad, is only averaging 127.5
passing yards per game, and just eight
of the team’s receptions this season
have been to receivers.
“Just looking at us statistically
wants me to get our passing game
going a lot more. We can’t be one-
dimensional,” Sheptock added. “We
need the two phases to compliment
each other to have a chance.”
Widener (1-1, 1-0 MAC) at Wilkes
(1-1, 0-1)
When: 1 p.m. Saturday at Schmidt
Stadium, Edwardsville
Last Week: In the MAC opener
for both teams, Widener defeated
Lebanon Valley 35-28, while the
Colonels dropped a 34-18 decision to
Lycoming.
Last meeting: It was a game
Wilkes does not want to remember, a
90-0 loss to the Pride last year.
Wilkes player to watch:
Quarterback Tyler Bernsten has just a
42.5 completion percentage this sea-
son with three interceptions and two
touchdowns. He will lead the offense
against a Widener defense that is
worst in the MAC in passing yards
allowed.
Widener player to watch:
Freshman quarterback Seth Klein
leads the MAC in passing with 581
yards and a completion percentage of
76.7.
Colonels’ team leaders: RB Pat
Inguilli 90 yards, 1TD; QB Tyler
Bernsten 101 rushing yards, 255
passing yards, 1 rushing TD; TE
Ryan Casey 101 yards, 1TD; DB D.J.
Shuttleworth, DB Omar Richardson 1
int; LB Tate Moore-Jacobs 27 tackles;
DL Rob Houseknecht 2 sacks
Pride’s team leaders: RB Terrant
Morrison 99 yards, 1TD; QB Seth
Klein 581 yards, 2 TD; WR Anthony
Davis 21 rec, 226 yards, 1TD; LB
Brandon Harper 21 tackles; DL
Stacey Sunnerville 2.5 sacks
Wilkes will win if: The pass-
ing game can take adavntage of a
weak Widener secondary, which has
allowed 801 yards through the air in
two games.
Widener will win if: The Wilkes
pass defense hasn’t shown improve-
ment from a year ago. So far the
Colonels have been better. But playing
a potent offense will be a test.
What to know: Wilkes always plays
Widener tough at home. The Pride
haven’t won in Edwardsville since
2007 and even that game was decided
on a late score. In fact, in Sheptock’s
tenure with the Colonels, which began
in 1996, he’s lost just three times at
home to the Pride.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo.
— Miami Heat forward
Chris Andersen was the
victim of a wide-ranging
Internet hoax that result-
ed in a raid of his Denver-
area home last year, his
lawyer said Wednesday,
and prosecutors con-
firmed Andersen was
cleared of wrongdoing in
the “extremely complex”
case.
Lisa Pinto, spokeswom-
an for the 18th Judicial
District Attorney’s Office,
told The Associated Press
that the office is review-
ing a 4,000-page report
before charging decisions
are made, but added that
“based on the information
that we have been able to
obtain and analyze, we
are not pursuing charges
against Chris Andersen.”
Andersen’s lawyer and
agent, Mark Bryant, said
his client was duped by
a woman in Canada who
sought a relationship and
gifts and who threatened
a female acquaintance of
Andersen’s in California
while impersonating the
tattoo-covered fan favor-
ite known as “Birdman.”
Bryant said neither
Andersen nor his acquain-
tance realized they
weren’t communicating
with each other online
or via cellphone texts but
rather were communicat-
ing with the woman in
Canada, who imperson-
ated one to the other.
The Canadian woman
initially contacted
Andersen through his
now-shuttered Facebook
profile, Bryant said.
“Chris was a victim,”
said Bryant, adding it was
his understanding that
the investigation uncov-
ered at least a dozen peo-
ple across several other
states who were duped
by the same woman who’s
been charged in Canada.
Although she was
arrested in January, her
connection to Andersen’s
situation didn’t become
clear until recently,
Bryant said.
Sgt. Line Karpish, a
spokeswoman with the
Royal Canadian Mounted
Police, said Douglas
County, Colo., authori-
ties requested assistance
on the case in May 2012,
and that investigation led
to the January arrest of
Shelly Lynn Chartier, 29,
of Easterville, Manitoba.
Chartier was charged
with possession and
transmission of child por-
nography, extortion and
utter threats, Karpish
said. Her next court
appearance is Oct. 22.

LOUDON, N.H. — Stripped of his Chase
spot, then his sponsorship, Martin Truex Jr. is
now in a hasty scramble to find a ride.
He his little time to piece together a deal and
few options.
“There’s not a whole lot out there,” Truex said
Friday at New Hampshire Motor Speedway.
But if he can find a funded ride out there,
owner Michael Waltrip is willing to let Truex
walk.
With NAPA out of the picture, Truex could
decide to bolt Michael Waltrip Racing as part
of the aftershock of the Richmond scandal
that saw him booted out of the Chase. NAPA’s
multimillion-dollar sponsorship defection from
MWR at the end of the year is just the latest
fallout from the team’s attempt to manipulate a
race to get Truex into NASCAR’s Chase for the
Sprint Cup championship.
NAPA is Truex’s primary sponsor and in the
first year of a three-year extension announced
last August. The deal ran through the 2015
season and is believed to be worth at least $15
million a year.
With only nine races left this season, Waltrip
asked Truex for more time to strike a deal for
2014 funding.
“If he came to me tomorrow and said, ‘I got
a deal to go do something,’ then obviously I
would not hold him back,” Waltrip said. “I owe
him a lot for his loyalty and his passion for our
team. I wouldn’t hold him back from doing
something he wanted to do, but I’d like him to
hang around so we can attract a sponsor and
keep him in our cars.”
Truex, who qualified fifth for Sunday’s race,
would like to stay at MWR.
He doesn’t know if NAPA would follow him
to another team.
“I’d always hoped that I’d be at Michael
Waltrip Racing for a long, long time,” Waltrip
said. “That really hasn’t changed. But it’s a lot
more confusing at the moment.”
MWR was also fined $300,000, general man-
ager Ty Norris was suspended indefinitely and
all three crew chiefs for its drivers were placed
on probation for the rest of the year.
NASCAR penalties levied against teams for
working outside the rule book are as much a
part of the sport as checkered flags and 200
mph speeds.
A major sponsor defection, however, is the
type of stunning move that could scare teams
into playing it straight and eliminate late-race
shenanigans.
“You see a team go through some decisions
that they went through and choices and you
want a team to get penalized for those types of
things, no matter what team it is,” Chase driver
Jeff Gordon said. “But you never want to see it
go to this level where they lose a sponsor.”
Waltrip said at New Hampshire he was scared
about how the penalties could harm his organi-
zation and he apologized for his team’s shady
actions.
“We will race forward with respect and
appreciation for being able to be here,” he said.
“We’ll start to regain trust.”

ATLANTA — Henrik
Stenson broke another club
Friday — this time by accident.
And it didn’t matter.
Playing with only 13 clubs in
the bag after his 4-wood broke
on the practice range, Stenson
made three birdies on the open-
ing four holes at East Lake to
quickly seize control and shot
4-under 66 to build a four-shot
lead over Adam Scott in the
Tour Championship.
For all his birdies, the best
move he made all week was
deciding to put the 4-wood in
his locker instead of carrying it
with him.
Stenson heard a funny sound
after hitting five shots on
the range, showed it to Steve
Stricker and realized the face
caved in. A television viewer
who heard about the incident
called the PGA Tour to see if
the Swede had kept it in his
bag, and officials checked with
Stenson after his round.
If he had left it in the bag
without using it, Stenson would
have been assessed a four-shot
penalty — the margin of his
lead. If he had used the club,
he would have been disquali-
fied. Stenson had no intention
of using it, though sending it to
his locker saved him.
He wasn’t sure it was a viola-
tion to carry a non-conforming
club, nor did he know the penal-
ties.
“You asked me how well I
knew the rules the other day. I
gave myself 7 out of 10, didn’t
I?” he said. “I guess this was in
the other 30 percent then. …
Good thing that we put it in the
locker before we teed off.”
The way he’s going, a bizarre
incident like that might be the
only thing that can stop him.
Stenson was at 10-under 130
going into the third round and
might be playing a course far
less firm. The forecast is for
rain most of day, and the start-
ing times have been moved
up to Saturday morning with
hopes of getting it in.
Tiger Woods is not in posi-
tion to halt the hottest player in
golf. Woods was headed toward
the best round of the day,
5-under through 13 holes, when
he made double bogey on the
14th, had a triple bogey on the
17th and wound up with a 71.
He was 14 shots behind. It
was the first time since the 2011
PGA Championship that Woods
began a tournament with back-
to-back rounds over par.
“I put everything I had into
that start and didn’t have much
at the end,” Woods said. “Just
ran out of gas.”
Scott sputtered at the start.
He was one shot behind
Stenson and quickly fell five
shots behind with a couple of
poor tee shots. Scott played the
last 14 holes without a bogey
and wound up with a 69 that
put him at 6-under 134.
The Masters champion chose
to look at a different number —
not four shots back, but only a
guy ahead of him.
“Look, Henrik is playing
fantastic, so he’s got this thing
under control at the moment.
But not for 36 holes,” Scott
said. “I think there’s too many
good players here. It’s not just
myself or someone at 5 under. If
it is softer tomorrow because of
rain, there could be a lot better
scores because it’s playing prob-
ably as tricky as it can at the
moment.”
Jordan Spieth, the 20-year-
old rookie, had a 67 and was
five shots behind. U.S. Open
champion Justin Rose, Dustin
Johnson and Billy Horschel
were another shot back.
There’s never a dull moment
with Stenson, who only last
week made news for all the
wrong reasons when he
smashed his driver on the final
hole of the BMWChampionship
and tore up his locker at Conway
Farms.
“They’re not going to believe
me anyway after last week that
the 4-wood broke during natural
causes,” he said.
His hope was to find a new
head in a nearby pro shop,
though it was unlikely he
could test it in time with the
early start Saturday. Told that
Stenson only had 13 clubs in the
bag, Scott said, “It didn’t seem
to bother him.”
Stenson could not recall
another time that he started
a round with fewer than the
maximum 14 clubs allowed.
Finishing a round with fewer
than 14? That’s different.
“In general, I try to keep it
at 14,” he said. “Most rounds
I manage to finish with 14 as
well.”
Stenson (No. 2) and Scott
(No. 3) are among the top five
seeds in the FedEx Cup who
could take home the $10 mil-
lion bonus simply by winning
the Tour Championship. Woods
could still win the FedEx Cup
if both of them falter, which
is looking unlikely halfway
through the tournament.
Scott has even more at stake
— a win might be enough for
him to win PGA Tour player of
the year.
Stenson really only needed
the 4-wood one time in the sec-
ond round — his second shot
into the par-5 ninth.
e had to hammer a 3-iron
instead, coming up well short
of the green. He still got up-
and-down for birdie, so it didn’t
matter.
e also used the 4-wood a cou-
ple of times on the back nine
Thursday, missing one of those
fairways.
Ultimately, what mattered
was his position.
“They got more work to do
than I have,” he said of his four-
shot lead.
“It might seem like a large
lead, but four shots during two
rounds is not that much. We
know sometimes four shots
isn’t enough on nine holes. So
I’m pretty cool about that. I’m
just going to go out and try to
do the best I can for the next
two days. And hopefully, that’s
good enough.”

Jon Jones saw all the zeros
next to Floyd Mayweather
Jr.’s name. He knows how
much money the world’s
best boxer made while dom-
inating his opponent last
weekend.
If Jones does some-
thing similar to Alexander
Gustafsson at UFC 165 in
Toronto this weekend, he
realizes the reward for being
arguably the world’s top
mixed martial artist is only
a fraction of Mayweather’s
$40 million-plus payday.
And it doesn’t bother
the UFC light heavyweight
champion at all.
“I’m grateful to make the
money I make,” Jones said.
“As a 26-year- old, I never
would have imagined being
in this position. And I’m
also a person that doesn’t
believe money is the key to
life or happiness.”
Jones (18-1) is the UFC’s
main attraction at Air
Canada Centre today when
he steps into the octagon
with Sweden’s Gustafsson
(15-1), the latest 205-pound-
er to take a shot at ending
Jones’ 2½-year champion-
ship reign. If Jones wins,
he’ll break Tito Ortiz’s pro-
motion record with his sixth
successful title defense.
But MMA’s probable
pound-for-pound champion
won’t get anything near the
j aw- dropping reward given
to Mayweather for school-
ing Saul Alvarez. The finan-
cial disparities for the stars
of these related sports have
been topics of contention
for years.
But don’t look for any
indignation from Jones, who
also has endorsement deals
with Nike and Gatorade.
The MMA champion and his
two NFL-star brothers grew
up on discounted school
lunches, and he’s willing
to be patient with a young
sport he picked up just six
years ago.
“Just being comfortable
makes me happy,” he said.
“I don’t need those type of
paydays. Would it be nice?
It would be great to get paid
the way other pro athletes
get paid. I believe it will
come. I’m just going to keep
doing my part. … If some-
body is going to pay me over
a million dollars to fight, do
you think I’m going to talk
trash about that? No way.
I’m so happy. I think $40
million, that’s like ridicu-
lous, in a good way.”
UFC 165 also features
interim bantamweight
titlist Renan Barao, unbeat-
en in 30 straight fights
since his pro debut in 2005,
defending his belt against
former WEC champ Eddie
Wineland. Heavyweights
Brendan Schaub and Matt
Mitrione also meet.
Just like Canelo,
Gustafsson is the most logi-
cal challenger to a domi-
nant champion. He has won
six straight fights since his
only career loss in April
2010, and nobody doubts he
deserves the title shot given
to him by UFC President
Dana White.
Although Jones is a
heavy favorite to defeat
Gustafsson, the challenger
is among the few 205-pound
contenders who can match
Jones’ impressive frame.
At 6-foot-5, Gustafsson is
slightly taller than Jones,
although the champion’s
84½-inch wingspan is a bit
broader.
“It’s not always about
reach,” said Gustafsson,
who trains in Stockholm
and San Diego. “It’s about
footwork. It’s being fast, in
and out. Stuff like that. I’m
really making sure I’ve real-
ly done my homework here,
and I’m super motivated.”
But Jones is confident he
can overcome any size simi-
larities with his combina-
tion of study and skill.
“I’m really excited to
prove that my size is just
a really small part of what
makes me, me,” Jones said.
“If my height was the rea-
son for my dominance, I
think half the NBA would
be top guys in the UFC.
Gustafsson, he’s really noth-
ing like me.
“What gets me motivated
is he hasn’t had the life,”
Jones added. “He wants
to be the top dog. A lot of
the guys I’ve fought before,
they’ve been there and they
didn’t appreciate it, and
they lost it. Alexander has
never been there, so there’s
a fire that I’m sure he has
that gets me fired up.”

Luzerne Bank President Robert
C. Snyder would be stepping
down. He’ll be replaced Oct. 1
by Robert J. Glunk.
Glunk, 48, is currently the
senior vice president and chief
operatingofficerforJerseyShore
State Bank, which like Luzerne
Bank is under the umbrella of
Penns Woods Bancorp Inc. In
that capacity, Glunk supervised
the retail branch system, as
well as the computer, sales and
deposit operations for the orga-
nization.
The announcement of the
pending change was made in a
joint release sent out by Joseph
E. Kluger, chairman of the board
for Luzerne Bank, and Richard
A. Grafmyre, president and
chief executive officer of Penns
Woods Bancorp.
“The members of the board of
directors are proud to welcome
Rob to Luzerne Bank,” said
Kluger. “He brings a wealth of
knowledge and years of valuable
experience in community bank-
ing to the position of president.
We are excited to have him on
board with Luzerne Bank.”
Glunk is a graduate of
Lycoming College and the
ABA Stonier Graduate School
of Banking. He is the president
of the Jersey Shore Hospital
Foundation, a board mem-
ber and finance committee
member of the Jersey Shore
Hospital, treasurer of the Jersey
Shore Library and member of
the Williamsport Chamber of
Commerce Industrial Properties
Corp. While he lives in Jersey
Shore, Glunk is looking for a
home inLuzerne County, a bank
spokeswoman said.
“Rob has earned his position
by demonstrating his leadership
skills, especially since being pro-
moted to senior vice president
at Jersey Shore State Bank,” said
Grafmyre. “Successfully man-
aging a variety of staff and line
functions in his 28-year
banking career, Rob has
always done what was in
the best interests of the
bank, its customers and
his colleagues.”
Snyder, who will be
retiring from the posi-
tion of president and
chief executive officer
to make way for Glunk,
will become a special
advisor to the CEO
through the end of this
year. He joined Luzerne
Bank in 2004 as presi-
dent and CEO following
a career in banking in
State College. Snyder serves as
chairman of the board of The
Greater Wilkes-Barre Chamber
of Commerce and as
a board member of
the United Way of
Wyoming Valley.
There are eight
Luzerne Bank branch
offices in Luzerne and
Lackawanna counties.
The bank opened in
November 1907. In
May, the boards of the
two banking compa-
nies agreed to an acqui-
sition, which went into
effect June 1. Penns
Woods is the parent
company of Jersey
Shore State Bank,
which operates 13 branches in
Lycoming, Clinton, Centre and
Montour counties.

NEW YORK — Sen. Al
Franken is asking Apple
for more clarity on priva-
cy and security concerns
he has with its use of fin-
gerprint recognition tech-
nology in the new iPhone
5S.
The iPhone 5S, which
went on sale Friday,
includes a fingerprint sen-
sor that lets users tap the
phone’s home button to
unlock their phone, rath-
er than enter a four- digit
passcode. But Franken
said that the fingerprint
system could be potential-
ly disastrous for users if
someone does eventually
hack it.
While a password can be
kept a secret and changed
if it’s hacked, he said, fin-
gerprints are permanent
and are left on everything
a person touches, making
them far from a secret.
“Let me put it this way:
If hackers get a hold of
your thumbprint, they
could use it to identify
and impersonate you for
the rest of your life,” the
Minnesota Democrat said
in a letter to Apple CEO
Tim Cook. Apple Inc. offi-
cials didn’t immediately
return an email seeking
comment on Franken’s
letter.But the Cupertino,
Calif., company has said
that this kind of technol-
ogy significantly boosts
security for users.
According to Apple, the
fingerprint data is stored
on the phone in a place
that’s inaccessible to
other apps and to Apple’s
remote servers.
In addition, Apple says
it’s not possible to con-
vert a fingerprint from a
police file into something
the phone will recognize,
as the sensor reads a sub-
epidermal layer of the fin-
ger. Meanwhile, anyone
worried about fingerprint
scan has the option of
disabling the feature and
sticking with the pass-
code.

The stock market has
been heating up, driv-
ing demand for IPOs.
There have been 140
initial public offerings
of stock this year, up 46
percent from the same
time in 2012, according
to IPO tracking firm
Renaissance Capital.
Of the eight companies
that went public this
week, two — cyberse-
curity software maker
FireEye and technology
advertising company
RocketFuel — nearly
doubled in value Friday.
The pace does not
appear be slowing. Next
week, market watch-
ers expect as many as
13 companies to make
their debuts. If all of
them price, it will be
the most IPOs in the
U.S. in one week since
2007, when 14 hit the
market at once, accord-
ing to data provider
Dealogic.
With the stock mar-
ket hitting new highs,
investors want to take
chances they might not
otherwise take in a flat
or down market, said
Scott Sweet, senior
managing partner at
IPO Boutique, which
researches and invests
in IPOs.
The Standard &
Poor’s 500 index, a
broad gauge of the stock
market, is up nearly 5
percent this month. If
that holds, it would be
the index’s best month-
ly performance since
January. Even with
Friday’s decline, stocks
are near all-time highs
set earlier this week.
How many compa-
nies are going public
and how much money
they’re raising reflect
investors’ confidence
and taste for taking
risks. A rising stock
market can make inves-
tors feel more optimis-
tic about the general
business climate and
more eager to take a
chance. Companies can
grow quickly after an
IPO, adding jobs and
making investments
with the new cash that
can help buoy the econ-
omy.
The success of some
prominent IPOs in
recent years, such as
Michael Kors Holding
Ltd., has also helped
increase investors’
appetite, said Josef
Schuster, an IPO ana-
lyst. Michael Kors stock
is worth almost four
times as much as its
$20 offering price in
December 2011.
And more are com-
ing. Social media com-
pany Twitter intends to
go public. Real estate
brokerage Re/Max
Holdings Inc. hopes to
raise as much as $210
million — above the
$100 million projected
in August, when the
company filed plans to
become public.

Jason Rodman installs a Collagewall display that he designed and photographed in a a bedroom in San Francisco. Previsualize your wall online, then order the paper
grid template, push pegs and photos from Collagewall.com. Family, vacation and personal-interest pictures are some of the themes you can use to create a photo-
graphic salon wall.
Salon walls tell your story
Those beautiful summer vaca-
tion photos are in a cardboard
box. Somewhere.
The souvenirs you picked up
on that overseas trip years ago
are jumbled in a drawer.
Your collection of (fill in the
blank) is in the kitchen cup-
board.
Why not showcase these per-
sonal treasures and create great
art at the same time?
One clever way to do it is to
mount shelves or frames on a
wall and fill them with whatever
pleases you. Decorators call it a
salon wall, and it has origins in
17th century Paris, when the
Royal Academy held exhibi-
tions, or “salons,” to showcase
student work. Their art would
be mounted in a closely knit
configuration.
A visually balanced arrange-
ment is what you’re after, New
York interior designer Elaine
Griffin says.
“It’s the eclecticism — photos
with found objects, for example
— that makes it beautiful and
stylish,” she says. “Every ele-
ment should speak to you or tell
you a story.”
To create a salon wall, plan
carefully. Lay out the arrange-
ment on the floor first, then
transfer it from the floor to the
wall, piece by piece.
“Start at the center of the
composition and work your
way outward, a little bit in each
direction, left, right, up, down,”
Griffin says.
Spacing doesn’t need to be
the same around all objects,
but it can look better when
it’s equal around an individual

Evoking old Paris, eclectic
displays can showcase a life
Housekeeping, drudgery? Not to us members of the
unofficial “clean club.”
You know if you belong: You enthusiastically discuss
your favorite cleaning tools, staying loyal to equip-
ment and techniques that have served you well over the
years. You understand the difference between a crevice
tool and an upholstery nozzle. Vacuuming? You see it
as an art.
But what if you don’t love to clean? Well, chances
are you still need to suck it up. Here are some tips on
methods and machines to help make the chore of vacu-
uming less of a challenge:
VACUUMING HOW-TO
Kit Selzer, senior editor at Better Homes & Gardens
magazine, says you shouldn’t begin cleaning by vacu-
uming.
“Vacuum after you’ve dusted. Pick up every possible
thing from the floor, and move dining chairs and side
tables out of the way so you have as much open space
as possible,” she says.
Professional house cleaners call this “top-down
cleaning” — you start at the top of the room, so par-
ticulates settle. Tackle ceiling corners, window treat-
ments, furniture and finally the floors.
Selzer also suggests keeping the attachments — crev-
ice tools and small brushes — handy as you get started.
“They’re invaluable for getting dust, dirt and pet
hair while you already have the vacuum out. Use the
crevice tool in corners and along the baseboards, the
upholstery brush on anything made of fabric, and the
dusting brush on blinds, books and lampshades,” she
advises.
How often should you vacuum? Frequently, especially
in high-traffic areas. It keeps dirt from getting ground
in and keeps carpet fibers from getting matted. Selzer
says vacuuming once a week is good for the average
carpet.
Other tips:
• Small rugs act like mini mops, gathering up a lot of
debris. Take them outdoors if possible for a good shake
before vacuuming. If you can’t do that, vacuum the rug
thoroughly on both sides, roll it up and put it aside
until the floor’s been dealt with.
• For big rugs, the Dalton, Ga.,-based Carpet and
Rug Institute recommends slow, overlapping motions
front to back. Start from the center of the rug and
move out to the edges to prevent fraying. Don’t go over
the fne art
of vacuuming
Ap photo
Moneual USA’s Rydis robot vacuum has several cleaning settings,
including an option to schedule a clean while you are away and a
room-indicator system to custom-design the vacuuming intensity
in different parts of the room under beds, on carpets, etc. Other
features include a detachable microfiber pad for hard surfaces
and twin brushes on the side to ensure dust is gathered efficiently
into the machine. It will return itself to the base, where it charges
rapidly.

BALTIMORE — Home-
improvement shows are a
mixed blessing, says Kent
Drinker of Timberlake
Building & Renovations.
Drinker speaks from
experience. The Annapolis,
Md.-based project and cli-
ent relations manager had
his brush with television
when his company was
featured on a recent epi-
sode of HGTV’s “Bang for
Your Buck.” Although he
hasn’t seen a major effect
on his business after the
show aired in May, he says
the industry has definitely
been affected by images,
trends and projects seen on
home-improvement shows.
“It’s pretty common
for us to have homeown-
ers come with a big folder
filled with clippings of what
they’ve seen on television
and in magazines. … A lot
of the time they don’t know
what they want. They just
see it,” he said.
The showbiz sparkle
of these programs and
articles does not match
up with real life, accord-
ing to some home industry
experts. The time in which
projects can be completed
is misleading, they say,
and variables such as costs,
labor and materials also are
skewed.
“Our take is that the
shows are great for provid-
ing ideas,” Drinker said.
“How practical those ideas
are is dependent on peo-
ple’s budget, the available
materials and time.”
Drinker’s company was
featured in “Bang for Your
Buck,” a show that pits
renovations of the same
room against each other to
see which adds the great-
est value to the home. The
company teamed with inte-
rior designer DreamHouse
Studios of Annapolis to
renovate the original great
room, kitchen, living room
and dining room of a 1929
cottage. After the reno-
vation was completed, a
group of experts deter-
mined that Timberlake
Building & Renovations’
project provided the best
“bang for your buck.”
In real life, however, cus-
tomers won’t see their proj-
ects unfold like a television
episode.
“Sometimes they see
something, and they don’t
know how much it costs
and how much is required
to install,” Drinker said. “It
makes the process of get-
ting from the concept to
the completion that much
longer. There are almost
too many choices out
there.”
Since her work
appeared three years ago
on “Extreme Makeover:
Home Edition” — creating
a house for the Boys Hope
Girls Hope organization —
Joy Waida has seen a num-
ber of clients with lofty
expectations for home-
improvement projects.
“What gets me is that
people’s expectations
are unrealistic,” said
Waida, the owner of Joy
Home Design, Staging &
Interiors in Fallston, Md.
“These shows will have a
team … behind the scenes.
You go out to dinner, and
you come back and it’s
done. These projects don’t
just happen in a day or
week. It is a collaborative
process. It doesn’t happen
overnight.”
Even with a large crew,
it was impossible to com-
plete the renovations asso-
ciated with the Baltimore
extreme makeover, which
at the time was the largest
project in the history of the
show, Waida said.
The home in Baltimore
was only “75 percent com-
pleted” when the structure
was revealed on the show,
Waida said.
“They only showed parts
of the house that were fin-
ished. We had to finish the
rest of the house after they
(the show) left,” she said.
“That’s something the pub-
lic doesn’t even know.”
Home - i mprovement
shows also don’t give an
accurate picture of the true
costs of projects, Waida
said.
“I’ve had that said — ‘do
the design on the dime’ —
to me so many times,” she
said, referring to “Design
on a Dime,” a series on
HGTV. “Do they under-
stand that the people on
the reality show don’t get
paid? Who is going to pay
the salary for those doing
the project? It costs more.
It’s a misconception.”
Do you believe everything you see on tV?

wool pile rugs, shags
and cabled weaves can
get fuzzy or tangled with
this brush, so stick to the
suction-only attachment
for them.
• Change the direction
of your vacuum passes fre-
quently.
• For bare floors, use
a good, soft brush to pro-
tect the floor. Brushes will
harden over time so need
to be replaced.
• Replace your machine
when it no longer sucks
like it used to. But make
sure it’s not just suffering
from a clogged hose, filter
or intake. Resist the fun of
slurping up coins or small
objects, as they can jam
up the hose or, worse, the
motor.
• Empty the canister
or vacuum bag when it’s a
half to three-quarters full;
don’t wait until it’s stuffed.
By then, you haven’t been
sucking up anything, just
dispersing dirt by moving
the vacuum around.
• Got pets? Use crev-
ice tools and upholstery
nozzles to remove hair
from tiny corners and
baseboards as well as fur-
niture. Vacuum throw pil-
lows, mattresses and cur-
tains weekly, to remove
pet dander and fur.
CHOOSE YOUR
WEAPON
There are two camps
when it comes to regular
vacuum models: uprights
and canisters.
Canister fans tout the
tote-ability of a light-
weight machine that can
be easily carried up stairs
and maneuvered from
room to room, and has
a wand that gets under
furniture. Upright lovers
prefer to push rather than
pull; these models tend to
glide easily across floors
and carpeting, and the dirt
receptacle generally has
a larger capacity than can
vacs.
Canister faves include
Eureka’s Mighty Mite,
Miele’s Olympus and
Delphi models, the Bissell
Zing and Panasonic’s
Opti Flow. Well-rated
uprights include the Shark
Navigator Elite, the Dyson
DC41 Animal, Hoover
Wind Tunnel, Miele Cat
& Dog and Bissell Clean
View.
Oreck’s line of uprights
and canisters are light-
weight and low-profile,
with long-lasting belts and
room-friendly bumpers
and wheels.
Electrolux’s Precision
Brushroll Clean upright
has a switch that gathers
up tangled hair on the
brush and shoots it into
the dust compartment
— great for families with
teenage daughters and
golden retrievers.
A lightweight, cordless
stick vac from Electrolux,
designed just for bare
floors, comes in color
accents that might appeal
to college-bound kids.

At long last, there is an
answer to why a reader’s
newly installed “smart
meter” reported normal
usage for one or two days,
then surged for the next
day or two — following
no particular pattern.
Oddly enough, the
answer came to me the
week after I first pub-
lished the reader’s inquiry,
but until the investigation
was completed, I didn’t
know that it was correct.
“We have since found
out that we had a leak
in our well,” the reader
writes.
“Who would have
thought that the well
pump running 24 hours a
day could almost double
our electric usage?”
Because the website is
still not showing accurate
usage, the reader is wait-
ing for her next bill to see
the difference, “but
I’ve been told by a
Peco representa-
tive that usage has
gone from 45 to 48
kilowatt-hours per
day to under 30 per
day, and that’s with
the air conditioner
running.”
The correct
answer, by the way,
was submitted by
Charles Ulmann of
West Chester, Pa., who
was my sophomore-year
college roommate, and,
obviously, still as sharp as
a tack.
• • •
Q: My hardwood floor
seems to be warping on
opposite ends. I can see
it and feel it when I step
on it.
Because I was
going to have them
refinished anyway,
I called for a couple
of estimates. The
first contractor
said it was called
cupping, caused
by some type of
moisture. He said
it would come out
after refinishing.
The second one
said it would go
away in a few months, and
refinishing would have to
wait until then.
How can I find out if
there is moisture under-
neath?
Answer: I think the
first contractor is cor-
rect in his analysis of the
problem, but believe that
the source of the mois-
ture needs to be identi-
fied before you spend the
money to refinish those
floors.
The second contractor
is, in a sense, also correct
if he is suggesting that the
common cause of cupping
— high relative humidity
— is the reason for the
problem.
Floors are cupped when
wood curls up and the
edges of the board are
higher than its center.
When I find that lum-
ber I’m using in a wood-
working project is slightly
cupped because it was not
dried completely, I run
it through my thickness
planer to see if I can solve
the problem.
Obviously, you can’t
do that with a floor that
already has been installed
unless, as you refinish it,
you sand the cupped por-
tions even with the rest,
which is what the first
contractor is suggesting,
or so it seems.
Yet what caused the
cupping in the first place?
I assume the contractor
believes that there might
have been a moisture
issue causing the cup-
ping, and that somehow
it has gone away, and all
he needs to do to correct
the problem is to sand it
evenly.
The second contrac-
tor, on the other hand,
believes the moisture
problem hasn’t yet done
its worst, so he wants to
wait until it is no longer
an issue, and then sand
the floors evenly, eliminat-
ing the cupping.
It is very difficult for
someone not having seen
the situation firsthand
to reach a conclusion. If
the floors were installed
when the relative humid-
ity was low, they could
cup when it was high.
Unfortunately, they won’t
“uncup” if the humid-
ity drops, so sanding the
floors evenly would be the
obvious fix.
If the moisture causing
the cupping is, say, from
a leaking pipe or sweat-
ing ductwork in the base-
ment beneath the floor, no
amount of sanding will fix
the problem permanently.
Have a plumber take a
look.
If the room gets damper
in warmer months but
is dry in colder months,
then you’ll have to look
into ways of getting a con-
sistent relative humidity
that won’t cause warping.
Flooring manufacturers
recommend maintain-
ing indoor tempera-
tures between 55 and 75
degrees and indoor rela-
tive humidity between 35
percent and 50 percent
year round.
You’ll need to figure
this out.

Q&A
Q: I’ve had rain barrels for years and the water quality
has always been great, but for some reason, this year
both barrels are stagnant and smelly. The water is whit-
ish, cloudy and filmy. Is there anything I can or should
do about this?
A: It’s hard to pinpoint the cause, but something
may have washed into the barrels from the roof or gut-
ters, said Katie Giacalone of the Clemson University
Restoration Institute and co-author of the guide
“Rainwater Harvesting for Homeowners.” Or water
could be backing up at the exit, she said.
Giacalone said it wouldn’t hurt to put a capful or two
of chlorine bleach in the water, though she wouldn’t rec-
ommend that if you’re watering a vegetable garden or if
some of the water will go straight into a storm sewer.
She recommended cleaning the barrel with some
castile soap and water at the end of the season. Inspect
all the screening and pieces to make sure the barrel is
still protected from mosquitoes and the parts that are
attached with silicon will all stay in place with no leaks.
Because you told me your barrels are in the shade,
it’s unlikely you have a problem with algae. But it’s
worth mentioning an algae-prevention tip from Victoria
Mills, executive director of the Doan Brook Watershed
Partnership in Shaker Heights, Ohio. She said home-
owners whose barrels are in the sun can paint them
a dark color to block out the light and inhibit algae
growth.

Fiber arts take on a new level of creativity when you
dream up your own fabric designs.
Artist Cheryl Rezendes shows how in her book,
“Fabric Surface Design.”
Rezendes teaches a number of decorative techniques
for fabric — painting, stamping, printing, marbling and
more. She offers guidance on fabric selection and on set-
ting up a work area, along with instructions and photos
of the methods she covers.
Profiles of fiber artists are sprinkled throughout the
book, along with photos of their work to give you inspi-
ration.
“Fabric SurfaceDesign” comes fromStoreyPublishing
and sells for $29.95 in paperback.

Xtend+Climb telescoping ladders work like extension
ladders but collapse small enough to fit into a car trunk.
The aluminum ladders come in home and pro series
that range in height from 8 ½ to 15 ½ feet. The ladders
can be adjusted to any height at 1-foot intervals.
A handle is integrated into the design to make the
collapsed ladder easy to carry, and thumb releases are
positioned to prevent pinching while the ladder is being
collapsed.
The ladders range from 16 ½ to 36 pounds. Prices
range from $149.99 to $309.99 on http://xtendan-
dclimb.com. The ladders also are available on Amazon.

IN BRIEF
element. Use a geometric
shape — square, circle,
triangle or diamond —
as a loose basis for your
arrangement.
Create an axis in the
center of the wall, a focal
point from which all the
elements radiate, Griffin
advises. Laying the idea
out on a template — a
piece of art paper on
which you draw the
shapes — will help con-
solidate the finished look.
“It’s nice if you have
the entire collection for
a wall ready to hang at
once, but you don’t have
to — you can install as
you collect,” Griffin says.
David Kassel, a collage
artist in New York City,
creates salon walls for
designers such as Bunny
Williams, Jamie Drake
and Jeffrey Bilhuber.
Through his company,
ILevel, he’ll put up any-
thing a client gives him
but also offers his own
collections: exotic turtle
shells, vintage medicine
bottles, colorful plates,
even a framed set of
1940s Rorschach ink
blots.
“For small objects you
can use shadow boxes.
Sconces are a wonderful
way to display bottles,
vases, rocks or any three-
dimensional objects. You
can choose from simple
contemporary wall wedg-
es or more traditional
options like carved, gold-
leaf sconces,” Kassel
says.
If you want to turn
your wall into a photo
gallery, hanging the pic-
tures without frames cre-
ates a clean look that lets
the pictures pop, says
Jeff Southard, a spokes-
man for Collagewall.com,
which helps clients create
photo walls. Avoid hang-
ing several versions of
the same picture, he says;
instead, use a variety of
close-ups, action shots,
etc.
“Given the choice
between a perfect bland
photo and a flawed, ener-
getic one, go for the lively
one,” Southard says.
“Don’t be afraid to
exhibit your passion.
Cars, kids, architecture
— even good food. When
guests come over, you
can talk about something
you love.”
San Francisco photog-
rapher Jason Rodman,
for example, mounted a
series of black-and-white
images of the city on
his wall. In Seattle, Sara
Shrader’s pride in her
two baseball-loving sons
led her to take photos of
their various team caps
over the years. She cre-
ated a collage wall that
included pictures of the
boys in action.
A company like
Picturewall.com provides
templates for rectangular
and stairway displays,
and sends a kit that
includes wood frames
and acid-free mats. You
just drop in your photos.

On paper, ‘The Crazy
Ones’ looked less than
promising. David E.
Kelley, the show’s creator,
has had an erratic record
and in recent years has
not appealed to my view-
ing taste. Robin Williams,
one of the stars, does not
seem the comedic titan
he once was. And another
star, Sarah Michelle Gellar,
is long removed from the
career high point of Buffy
the Vampire Slayer; her
most recent series, ‘Ringer,’
lasted just one season.
But ‘The Crazy Ones’
made me laugh, espe-
cially when Williams was
unleashed, improvising
madly in scenes. He is
especially good in tandem
with James Wolk; while
Wolk was impressive as the
mysterious Bob Benson on
‘Mad Men,’ that gave no
hint of the unfettered looni-
ness in some of his scenes
with Williams. There’s an
outtake from ‘The Crazy
Ones’ premiere in which
the two finally force guest
star Kelly Clarkson to break
her stony expression, worn
down by their relentless
assault on her funny bone.
In the series, premiering
at 9:01 p.m. EDT Thursday
on CBS (with the premiere
ending at 9:31). Williams
is Simon Roberts, the bril-
liant head of an advertis-
ing agency — but also
something of a head case.
Gellar is Simon’s daughter
Sydney, very buttoned up
and determined to keep
the agency afloat even as
Simon threatens to run it
aground. Wolk is part of the
agency’s staff.
Based on the premiere,
the show will drop real
names in its pursuit of cli-
ents, for example wooing
McDonald’s and trying to
get Clarkson to sing a jingle
in an ad. The glowing trib-
utes to the hamburger chain
will feel excessive, especial-
ly to someone who doesn’t
consider the Big Mac a
culinary paragon. But we
are in a product-placement
age; I am mightily weary
of TV shows where char-
acters spend extra time in
a car just so we can admire
its dashboard features. It
would be nice to see the
“crazy ones” think a poten-
tial, real-life client has a bad
product.
Still, Williams is in fine
form, as is Wolk. Gellar has
never struck me as espe-
cially funny, and the Crazy
Ones premiere does not
change my mind; that said,
she does manage to carry
off her big scene in the
premiere. And Clarkson is
delightful. We’ll just have to
see if The Crazy Ones can
live up to its premiere.

Remember him? Robin Williams is in rare modern form in the new
comedy ‘The Crazy Ones.’
NEW YORK — Asked about the
upcoming season of “The Walking
Dead,” Danai Gurira goes silent.
When prompted again, she
breaks into laughter: “I’m thinking.
How I’m going to answer without
saying anything?”
The actress, who will mark her
second full season as the machete-
wielding fan favorite Michonne
when the AMC show returns Oct.
13, is still figuring out how to
dodge questions about what will
happen so she doesn’t reveal plot-
lines.
Gurira doesn’t let on much about
the new season, although she says
many fans are asking whether
romance will bloom for Michonne
and Sheriff Rick Grimes (Andrew
Lincoln).
“We know from the comic books
even that these two characters do
develop a connection. How exactly
that plays out — I don’t know —
we’ll have to all see,” she says.
Gurira is also starring in “Mother
of George.” The film is the story
of a woman from Nigeria’s Yoruba
tribe who moves to Brooklyn, N.Y.,
to marry her intended and the
hurdles she faces as part of the
traditional Yoruba New York com-
munity when she doesn’t become
pregnant.
Gurira, who was born in Iowa to
Zimbabwean parents and grew up
in Zimbabwe, says she appreciates
being able to tell a story from the
African perspective.
“I loved being able to explore such
a story,” she says. “That woman you
see on the streets of Brooklyn, on
the streets of Manhattan and walk-
ing in the same subway and wear-
ing her outfits with pride and with
an ease and knowing she doesn’t
look like anybody else in the car-
riage and not minding at all.”

O N T H E W E B
Dear Abby: I am
fortunate to be a
stay-at-home mom.
My days are spent
doing chores and
taking care of the
kids. I also volunteer
extensively at their
schools, but I do find time for other
pursuits, such as reading and writing.
My problem is my husband. “Bob”
is the kind of guy who can’t sit still.
When he’s home on weekends or tak-
ing a day off, he constantly needs to
be doing something. This involves
projects around the house. Other than
spending time online, his hobbies are
active ones. Because he’s always on
the go, he insists I should be equally
“productive.” He constantly wants to
know what I’m doing, and if it’s not
something he thinks is useful, he be-
comes passive-aggressive.
Bob initiates big projects and then
complains that he gets no help and
has no time for himself. He says my
volunteerism takes away from time
I should be doing things around the
house. In addition, Bob is incredibly
neat and often insists that our immac-
ulate house needs to be cleaned.
I dread the days he’s home because
I have to constantly justify my activi-
ties or feel guilty if I’m not busy the
entire time. Don’t misunderstand —
Bob is a great guy, a good dad and my
best friend. But I’m afraid I will soon
resent him to the point of dislike if
I must live my life according to his
unrealistic expectations. Any advice
other than to seek counseling?
— Not a Loafer in Chicago
Dear Not A Loafer: Nope. It appears
that your great guy, good dad and
best friend is so controlling he makes
you miserable when he’s home. I
agree that if this continues, it will
have a negative effect on your mar-
riage. The person who should explain
it to him is a mental health profes-
sional who can provide the counsel-
ing and/or medication he may need,
because I suspect he may have OCD.
Dear Abby: I reconnected with my
dad two years ago. I hadn’t spoken
with him for almost 10 years, follow-
ing my parents’ divorce. I’m thankful
he’s back in my life again.
The problem is his wife, “Kathy.”
Ever since we reunited, I have felt she
resented me. It’s like she doesn’t like
sharing Dad with me. She had him
all to herself for 10 years, so I guess I
kind of understand.
Kathy recently found a job across
the country, so she and Dad sold
their house and moved away a few
weeks ago. Her family lives here and
she had job offers closer to home,
but she chose the one farthest away.
I can’t help but feel she did it to put
distance between Dad and me, and it
hurts me deeply. How do I talk to my
dad about it without damaging the
relationship?
— Loving Daughter in Wisconsin
Dear Loving Daughter: What do you
think talking about it to your father
will accomplish? You don’t know for
certain that she accepted the job to
separate you and your dad. Remem-
ber, he AGREED to the move.
The problem with family estrange-
ments is that you can never get back
the time you lost. Keep in touch with
your father via cards and letters, texts
and emails, video chats or other so-
cial media — whatever you and your
father are most comfortable with.
But I do NOT advise saying anything
negative about Kathy.
DEAR ABBY
A D V I C E
Husband’s constant need for activity is wearing on woman’s patience
To receive a collection of Abby’s most memo-
rable — and most frequently requested — po-
ems and essays, send a business-sized, self-
addressed envelope, plus check or money
order for $3.95 ($4.50 in Canada) to: Dear
Abby’s “Keepers,” P.O. Box 447, Mount Mor-
ris, IL 61054-0447. (Postage is included.)
ARIES (March 21-April 19). The
moon gives you an energetic
boost that’s better than anything
you could buy in a bottle. You’re
physically stronger than yester-
day, and the odds are with you
for winning at sports.
TAURUS (April 20-May 20). The
philosopher Cosino DeGregrio
said, “Beware the flatterer: He
feeds you with an empty spoon.”
Of course, if you’re very hungry,
you’ll accept the placebo effect
and eat it right up.
GEMINI (May 21-June 21). If there’s
one thing you do not lack, it’s
complexity. You’re multidimen-
sional and will interest others on
many different levels. No one,
not even you, knows all of you.
CANCER (June 22-July 22). Being
overly concerned with what’s
appropriate only makes every-
one feel uptight. If you’re too
agreeable, you’ll shortchange all
the zippy fun that happens when
you’re edgy.
LEO (July 23-Aug. 22). As if saying
the right thing at the right time
weren’t tricky enough, saying
nothing at the moment that
tempts you to state the obvious
truth of the matter takes super-
human good taste.
VIRGO (Aug. 23-Sept. 22). People
think highly of you and will seem
to have overblown opinions of
your abilities. Don’t modestly dis-
qualify what they think and say,
because they could be right.
LIBRA (Sept. 23-Oct. 23). You’re in
a competitive mood, but if you
compete with a partner, you’ll
either lose for winning or lose
for losing. It will be better to play
games with acquaintances or
strangers.
SCORPIO (Oct. 24-Nov. 21). You’re
sensitive to different environ-
ments and will match your
conversation accordingly. Some
people aren’t as good at this as
you are.
SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 22-Dec. 21).
Your fire-sign tendencies will be
amplified at the start of the day
when emotions will run hot. But
the evening hours cool things
down with a breezy sense of
detachment and a playful mood.
CAPRICORN (Dec. 22-Jan. 19).
You’ll be encouraged to air some
of your strong opinions. Loved
ones don’t expect or want you to
agree on every point, but they
will be hurt if you don’t at least
listen to their views.
AQUARIUS (Jan. 20-Feb. 18).
Someone is thinking about the
future while you’re still trying to
figure out the moment. To get
back into a relationship groove,
either you need to speed up or
the other person needs to slow
down.
PISCES (Feb. 19-March 20). You
want to connect with successful
people, but their success doesn’t
matter nearly as much to you
as how they interact with you.
When it comes to relationships,
it’s your personal evaluation, not
the world’s, that matters.
TODAY’S BIRTHDAY (Sept. 21).
Romance isn’t just a feeling you
have about another person; it’s a
way of life. This year is a celebra-
tion of beauty and affection. An
encouraging group of friends will
help you make a career shift in
October. Stash your November
bonus; you’ll need it for a major
purchase in August. Your lucky
numbers are: 3, 1, 22, 38 and 18.
